Misc/Load Generator

The Load Generator is an operator for simulating load on the CPU and GPU. This can be useful for stress-testing a project or a server. The Load Generator Operator is rarely used, but in some cases, it can be useful.

• Frequency

  • Load frequency - How often the load should be applied.

  • Last load rendered - Last time the load was applied.

• CPU

  • Computer sleep time (1 tread) - Generates a "sleep" of x milliseconds on the main rendering CPU thread.

  • CPU Threads - How many CPU threads to spawn (except for the main rendering thread).

  • CPU Load per thread - How much workload to apply on each CPU thread.

• GPU

  • GPU Load per thread - Number of CUDA kernels to launch per CPU core.

  • GPU run in parallel - Toggle on/off. Allow the GPU work (threads) to be spawned in parallel.
