A stress test (sometimes called a torture test) of hardware is a form of deliberately intense and thorough testing used to determine the stability of a given system or entity. It involves testing beyond normal operational capacity , often to a breaking point, in order to observe the results.
Sysbench can run benchmark tests specified in command line flags or in shell scripts. The type of test to run is specified in the command options and would be one of: cpu: CPU performance test; fileio: File I/O test; memory: Memory speed test; mutex: Mutex performance test; threads: Threads subsystem performance test
