Prime95 is a popular software tool used primarily for stress testing and benchmarking computer processors by running intense calculations based on the Mersenne prime search algorithm. This rigorous testing helps users gauge system stability and detect potential issues, particularly useful for overclockers, hardware testers, and enthusiasts aiming for optimal CPU performance.

...It helps users uncover stability issues, cooling weaknesses, and power delivery problems by applying maximum, sustained stress to both the processor and graphics card. The utility supports dedicated CPU tests—SSE or AVX—and a demanding GPU 3D rendering test, with the option to run both simultaneously for full-system power load evaluation. Because it does not generate scores or benchmarks, powerMAX is strictly a stress-testing tool rather than a performance comparison utility. The software requires no installation, leaves no system traces, and runs on any Windows system from Windows 7 onward. Users must operate powerMAX at their own risk, as the extreme loads can expose component flaws and potentially cause irreversible hardware damage.

wrk is a modern, command-line HTTP benchmarking tool engineered for high performance, capable of generating substantial load using a single multi-core CPU by leveraging multithreading and scalable event notification systems. An optional LuaJIT script can perform HTTP request generation, response processing, and custom reporting. Details are available in SCRIPTING and several examples are located in scripts. The machine running wrk must have a sufficient number of ephemeral ports available...

E-Mail monitoring, benchmarking and load testing tool with integrated web UI.

AdaptiveCells J2EE generates test-beds for benchmarking J2EE performance. They consists of highly customizable EJB cells that can emulate CPU load, memory usage, memory leaks and exceptions. The behaviour of the cells is coordinated from a web front-end.

http://jmsloadtester.marcel-sauer.de JMS Load Tester is a small command line based Java (>1.5) application to load test JMS brokers like SonicMQ, ActiveMQ, OpenJMS and others. It can be configured with a property file.
