There are times that you would like to create some "load" on the system. A very, very easy way of keeping a processor very busy is:
# yes > /dev/nullThe yes command will continiously echo "yes" to /dev/null. This is a single-threaded process, so it will put load on a single processor. If you wish to put load on multiple processors, why not run yes a couple of times?
