Giving Machine Time-Testing a helping hand.
HighLoad is comprised of a set of helpful processes designed to assist in troubleshooting your Mac.
In addition to the functions described below, HighLoad will also place the machine in an environment better suited for testing. It will temporarily disable the System Preferences Energy Saving features such as display sleep, system sleep, as well as the screen saver.
Real World Testing.
HighLoad will systematically begin to launch applications you would use when you use your computer. This will simulate a real world high load environment to make sure items such as the virtual memory system, window server system, and other integrated processes are being utilized to the max.
Informative and Helpful.
HighLoad will display the current system load average and Mach factor in its main display, in addition, a blinking red status light will let you know if the machine is still functional if no other visual cue is available.
Let the timer keep track of how long the machine has been in testing. No more estimations means a more efficient work-flow when testing multiple machines.
Memory Testing in a Single Click.
HighLoad will test available physical memory using memtest to make sure it is faulty free. No parameters to set or complex commands to issue, just one click. The test progress and results will appear in a window adjacent to HighLoad.
Maintenance When You Need It.
Update Prebinding, Repair Disk Permissions, Clear Cache Files, Run Periodic Tasks and more when issues are found or just as routine maintenance. HighLoad incorporates these tasks into one convenient location for easy testing.
