Please, recommend CPU and RAM burn test

2009-02-24 Thread Artem Kuchin

Hello!

I need to really heavily test a box with 8 cores and 16GB FBDIM RAM.

Is there a suitable port for such task?

I'd like to point out that i don't want to measure perfomance. I need to 
really really

heavily load the server up to it's maximum.

well, not quite a port but there is a CD called Ultimate Boot CD with an  
app called pc-check if I remember correctly that really streses your RAM,  
CPU, MOBO, CD/DVD unit, etc.

You could also try sysutils/cpuburn and math/mprime (in torture mode)

make -j
generic kernel

but it won't full load CPUs and RAM

copy GENERIC to 10 other files, do config, and then
make depend;make -j in every directory.

if any kernel won't build - machine is not OK.

while doing this you may do

dd if=/dev/yourdisk of=/dev/null bs=1m
in parallel from each of your disk to check if disk subsystem works fine 
under load

sysutils/stress, in your case:
stress --vm 32 --vm-bytes 512M --cpu 8

will put it into swap, while cpu's are overloaded. Add --hdd 4 to write 4 1GB 
files in parallel, should be a nice test ;)

Test can be run till interrupt or use -t 300 to timeout after 5 minutes.

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
and never get to the software part.

why not  make -j 4x # of CPUs ???

that should over saturate the CPU and memory
