      The concept of NP-completeness relative to a slowly utilized oracle is introduced and shown to be useful for providing evidence of intractability of some problems that are not known to be NP-complete. One such problem is to decide if a sparse polynomial has a root in the integers (mod p) for prime p. Relationships between unrelativized complexity and complexity relative to a slowly utilized oracle are also given.
