Ah well yeah the GPU was an issue, running the onboard in the i5 - but giving it more resources helped alot.
For I/O i ran a create and move file around and delete script that uses /dev/urandom and create, random sized file, gzips it, moves it a couple of times to random folder and then deletes it. (same i use for grading webservers when doing node.js work). Did not do the youtube thing - but ran glxgears x 5, and gzip -c /dev/urandom /dev/null. But i imagine some more stuff needs to be tested.. the APM is turned off so is also the CPU C instructions for throttling. Thanks for help anyway. =) // Andreas John Kasunich skrev den 2015-02-27 23:37: > On Fri, Feb 27, 2015, at 02:13 PM, Andreas Pettersson wrote: >> If its stable running after 15min of basicly 100% cpu load - do i need >> to bother running it any longer? >> > Is if 15 minutes of doing the same "load" thing over and over?
