What are you testing?

I don't have an opinion.

On Fedora, here are some direct hits:

$ dnf search stress
Fedora 38 OpenH264 (from Cisco) - x86_64        4.9 kB/s | 2.5 kB     00:00
stress.x86_64 : A tool to put given subsystems under a specified load
stress-ng.x86_64 : Stress test a computer system in various ways
stressapptest.x86_64 : Stressful Application Test - userspace memory and IO test
golang-x-tools-stress.x86_64 : Tool for catching sporadic failures
gst.noarch : System utility designed to stress and monitoring various hardware
           : components
s-tui.noarch : Terminal-based CPU stress and monitoring utility

Apache also has a tool to stress test your webserver. It is called 'ab'.

I believe PostgreSQL and MySQL have similar tools.
