How about this for processor churn?
perl -e '$_="abcd"x100000;while(1){y/abcd/bcda/}'
perl -e '@_=0..1000000;while(1){foreach(@_){++$_,--$_}}'
perl -e '@_=0..100000;while(1){foreach(@_){$a=$_/++$_;--$_}}'

The first exercises about about 8MB of memory fairly heavily.
The second beats up 64MB of memory with light mathops.
The third eats 9MB with a heavier math op.

Obviously you can tweak how much memory is eaten with monster number in there... HTH.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
