This is a simple CPU burn program for the major UNIX systems: AIX, BSD, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris etc (full list in the source file #defines) and Windows. It will discover the number of available CPU cores and fork enough threads to create a load on all cores by default.
The number of threads and memory block size can be changed from the command line.
Features
- Simulates load for some or all CPUs to test the cooling system efficiency
- Uses memory buffers of a given size (the same for each CPU) to test memory throughput
- Tested under Fedora 19 x64, FreeBSD 10 x64, Solaris 11 x64 and Windows XP, 7. Expected to work on 32 bit systems as well.

Passwordless Authentication and Passwordless Security
It’s no secret — passwords can be a real headache, both for the people who use them and the people who manage them. Over time, we’ve created hundreds of passwords, it’s easy to lose track of them and they’re easily compromised. Fortunately, passwordless authentication is becoming a feasible reality for many businesses. Duo can help you get there.
