Does anyone know good any alternative(s) for cpuburn?
If not, then I would like to request that this port be restored.
I am prepared to be designated as its maintainer and to host its distfile (via my
FreeBSD account).

Maintaining the port should be rather easy as it can not have any security issues by definition and at the moment there is no active upstream, so no code changes
are expected.

P.S. Sorry that I've missed its deprecation. I haven't noticed the activity until
I needed to use it at yet another system.


I often use sysutils/stress don't know if that fits your needs?

I've just noticed that cpuburn is gone and stress is not an alternative for my task. Why? Because I use cpuburn to verify the undervolting capabilities of AMD cpus's for sysutils/cpupowerd which needs to explicitly hammer the CPU with MMX instructions and parallel with normal CPU instructions while lowering vcore.
