DroidStress
Bugfix:
- Fixed a bug that the Memory stress test's value is reset to the previous value even if the value is zero or empty after the service is stopped.
- Changed the memory stress test thread to stop as soon as possible after service stopped.
It offers the following features:
- Forces the CPU to perform unnecessary calculations to generate load
- Executes the process with a specified number of threads
- Runs in the background, allowing work to continue even when the app is closed
- Displays a solid black blank screen to prevent burn-in the display for devices that has OLED display
- Also perform the memory stress test
How to use:
On Android 13 and newer, When this app started at the first time, it will show a dialog requesting notification permission. This is required to the app can continue processing even when its window is not open.
In the "Threads:" input field, enter the number of threads to use.
In the "Duration (minute):" input field, enter the amount of time, in minutes, that the process should run.
If a number is entered, the process will run for that many minutes.
To run the process indefinitely, leave the field blank.
In the "Memory stress test (MiB:)" input field, enter a value in MiB if you want to perform a memory stress test.
The test repeatedly allocates the specified amount of memory, writes arbitrary data to it, and then frees it, thereby stressing the memory.
Press "Start" to begin processing. Once started, a notification will appear indicating that background work is in progress. Press "Stop" to halt processing.
Press "Show blank screen" to display a solid black screen and temporarily stop the screen from sleeping. This is useful when running long stress tests on OLED displays.
