| I’m trying to run out of RAM as fast as possible. I got a new MacPro with 256GB of RAM, and I’m trying to load test my RAM. The reason is that if it’s going to fail, I want it to happen when I’m not facing a deadline. I already returned my first 256GB kit to OWC because something failed on Day 2. BTW, great service from them. They overnighted a replacement kit. What’s a best way to do this? Something like an 8K comp with noise applied to a solid? I’ve tried a few things, but so far unable to get past having 123 GB or so free. A few attemps, Ae just stopped RAM-previewing while I still had plenty of RAM to spare. The GPU can be stressed by playing highly compressed H.264 codecs in Premiere. The CPU can be stressed by running Render Garden. I found a freeware app called XRG that graphs CPU, GPU, RAM, and other functions. I also have iStat Menu installed. . |
