Description

memtest is a utility for testing the memory subsystem in a computer to determine if it is faulty. The original source was by Simon Kirby <[email protected]>. The program has been rewritten by Charles Cazabon and many additional tests were added to help catch borderline memory. He also rewrote the original tests (which catch mainly memory bits which are stuck permanently high or low) so that they run approximately an order of magnitude faster.
