CPUEater v4 early preview

Posted on 18:16 by Unknown
Over the next few weeks I'll be introducing enhancements coming in the new version 4. I'll save the best for last. So, first let's start with the CPU Eater. I've revamped (and the backing TestLasso) to allow greater control over the number of threads created, and the CPU affinity that the test should run on. I've also clarified the description, so that people realize the actual CPU eating is done in a background process at normal priority (TestLasso.exe, but named 'bg.tst' in stand-alone distributions of the CPU Eater).


Latest nightly build of v4 CPU Eater Demo:
32-bit: http://www.bitsum.com/files/beta/CPUEaterDist32.exe
64-bit: http://www.bitsum.com/files/beta/CPUEaterDist64.exe
