Perfect!
And for anybody following along:
# pkg install git
# echo "140.82.114.3 github.com" >> /etc/hosts. # in case no resolv.conf
# git clone https://github.com/ColinIanKing/stress-ng.git
# cd stress-ng
# pkg install illumos-tools # this is overkill, but I wanted to compile the
kernel too…
# pkg install gnu-make
# gmake clean
# gmake
At which point you can run commands like:
# ./stress-ng --cpu 0 --timeout 5m
K.
