How can I analyze my cpu when I run stress on cpu? When I enter the following command for any value of n: (For example 5, 10, 20, 40)
sudo stress --cpu n --timeout 40s
The top command result for cpu usage is 100%. So when I change the n value, what will be change?
"n" should be the number of cores (threads) you want to stress. If you have 4 core CPU without hyperthreading a value of 2 should give you about 50% load etc.
