Processor

stress --CPU 8 --io 4 --VM 2 --VM-bytes 128M --timeout 60m

going to work your processor as well as the memory and test your entries/outputs for 60 minutes. This is the option --timeout that will allow to fix the time of stress.

If the test stops unexpectedly in full operation, it's that your processor supports more load and/or too hot.
