[vfio-users] Stability Testing/Benchmarking software for Windows VMs

[Brian Yglesias]

Thanks for the feedback.



Furmark was what I was looking for.



For posterity:



I was using GPUTest, which turned out to be an older version of the stress 
test in Furmark.



I had also tried 3DMark, but it only loops with the commercial version, and 
I couldn’t justify the expense for a stress test.



Also, unless I am missing something in the super-cool interface, the eVGA 
precision software I got through Steam does not have any sort of stress test 
built into it.  It has only some sort of “instantaneous self-test” which 
appears to be permanently inactive for me.

It's been a long time since I did it, but I remember 3Dmark (commercial and 
free versions) having a looping mode, and I know Furmark was a real GPU 
killer last time I looked. If you have an eVGA graphics card, their 
Precision software includes a multiple-test-type version of Furmark built 
in.

I'm not much of a gamer, so I'm looking for software to use for 
troubleshooting stability issues.

E.g. the overclockers all use prime95, or at least they used to.  Is there 
some analog de facto standard for GPU testing?

The software I've found so far doesn't have a continuous testing mode. 
Anything with diagnostic info would be a plus.
