RMA Test loading

[Robert_CM_Huang]

Hi:
User can modify RAM test loading in Passmark Burnin Test 8.0 之 RAM. For example, change from 50% to 80%. What is the main difference between 50% and 80% loading? Test cycle time or test items?

A low duty cycle means that a delay will be inserted during the execution of the test, reducing the load on the system and reducing the number of operations performed during any particular period of time. A high duty cycle corresponds to higher load.

Thank you. Richard.

So, if I set the memory to 50, it is not means that it occupies 50% memory size.
Right?

No, that is incorrect. Setting the loading does not represent the amount of RAM being tested. The load determines the delay between subsequent tests. There is no option to set test coverage, any memory that is not already in active use will be tested by the Memory test.

Thanks, Richard. ^^

You solved my question.
