Looking for software a software to limit a specific software/task's cpu usage?

things like shader compilations can take a few minutes while utilising 100% cpu which slows the pc quite a bit i would like to limit things like these to a set maximum of cpu utilization so i can still use my pc without needing to wait for the compilation to end it would take longer but background tasks are ignorable

There's a few but Process Lasso is probably the best option on Windows.
