MemoryTester Manual
MemoryTester™ offers the following commands:
- stress — full utilize all CPUs, test for bad memory and flaky components, test memory bandwidth;
- compute — measure compute performance with different number of threads;
- alloc — allocate memory and keep it paged-in.
GUI vs command line
These are “one click” operations designed to provide useful results with no fuss. The “alloc” command is a specialty command which requires use of the command line tool.
Graphing results
MemoryTester does not draw graphs— output is in text form.
However, a spreadsheet is supplied into which you can paste results for an instant graph for the compute command, which shows at a glance how a multi-cpu or multi-core computer scales under compute load.
