A bit OFFTOPIC and only of interest, if you're using WICD:
The line where wpa_supplicant is restarted is found in /opt/wicd/networking.py
and looks like:

misc.Run("wpa_supplicant -B -i " + self.wireless_interface + " -c \"encryption/configurations/" + network["bssid"].replace(":","").lower() + "\" -D " + self.wpa_driver)

You only have to prepend it with 'nice -n 19' so it reads:

misc.Run("nice -n 19 wpa_supplicant -B -i " + self.wireless_interface + " -c \"encryption/configurations/" + network["bssid"].replace(":","").lower() + "\" -D " + self.wpa_driver)
