It already is running at a background priority. FWIW, I believe the performance impact is largely due to the continuous disk I/O. I don't think CPU would be a major factor on an RN516 (which is what I think you have???).
It is possible to run the commands via ssh. There is a way to pause/resume the BTRFS scrub. Pausing mdadm checkarray is supposed to be possible, but I've never tried it.

One of the apps I have has a CPU usage which shows 100% cpu being used. I supposed I/O is probably also a bottle neck. basically i just want it to run at night and pause during the day.
Do you know how i might pause it and resume it? would love to schedule it.
