|

|

<p>Lookbusy is a simple application for generating synthetic load on a Linux
|
||||
system. It can generate fixed, predictable loads on CPUs, keep chosen amounts
|
||||
of memory active, and generate disk traffic in any amounts you need.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Lookbusy is not a load <em>simulator</em> -- that is to say, it does not
|
||||
attempt to model the specific actions of real-world applications for
|
||||
benchmarking or other purposes. Rather, lookbusy makes a system just as busy
|
||||
as you'd like it to be.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>When generating CPU load in particular, lookbusy will attempt to keep the
|
||||
CPU(s) at the chosen utilization level, adjusting its own consumption up or
|
||||
down to compensate for other loads on the system. Load can be induced either
|
||||
at a fixed level, or at on a repeating cycle (for example, reflecting a daily
|
||||
traffic load curve.)</p>
