stress is a tool which imposes a configurable amount of CPU, I/O, RAM, and
HDD load and report any errors it detects.

stress is not a benchmark. It is a tool used by system administrators to
evaluate how well their systems will scale, by kernel programmers to evaluate
perceived performance characteristics, and by systems programmers to expose the
classes of bugs which only or more frequently manifest themselves when the
system is under heavy load.
