It's not faster, but stopping your other apps lets the game run as fast as it can.
The system treats all threads with the same priority as equal. The system assigns time slices in a round-robin fashion to all threads with the highest priority. If none of these threads are ready to run, the system assigns time slices in a round-robin fashion to all threads with the next highest priority. If a higher-priority thread becomes available to run, the system stops running the lower-priority thread (and doesn't let it finish using its time slice) and gives a full time slice to the higher-priority thread. For more info, see Context Switches . Translation = if you put the game on high it is much less likely that some other task that's already running will steal your game's processing time.
You translation shows what I thought about that, and the important stuff is up there way higher than regular things, so the game process matters much more than most normal tasks. That means it could be a boost in speed or performance.
