  HOG, n.  A bird remarkable for the catholicity of its appetite and
  serving to illustrate that of ours.  Among the Mahometans and Jews,
  the hog is not in favor as an article of diet, but is respected for
  the delicacy and the melody of its voice.  It is chiefly as a songster
  that the fowl is esteemed; the cage of him in full chorus has been
  known to draw tears from two persons at once.  The scientific name of
  this dicky-bird is _Porcus Rockefelleri_.  Mr. Rockefeller did not
  discover the hog, but it is considered his by right of resemblance.
  
  

  hog
       
          1. Favoured term to describe programs or hardware that seem to
          eat far more than their share of a system's resources,
          especially those which noticeably degrade interactive
          response.  *Not* used of programs that are simply extremely
          large or complex or that are merely painfully slow themselves
          (see pig, run like a).  More often than not encountered in
          qualified forms, e.g. "memory hog", "core hog", "hog the
          processor", "hog the disk".  "A controller that never gives up
          the I/O bus gets killed after the bus-hog timer expires."
       
          2. Also said of *people* who use more than their fair share of
          resources (particularly disk, where it seems that 10% of the
          people use 90% of the disk, no matter how big the disk is or
          how many people use it).  Of course, once disk hogs fill up
          one file system, they typically find some other new one to
          infect, claiming to the sysadmin that they have an important
          new project to complete.
