I know this will be ignored.

But thanks anyway.
You just push your CPU at 100% load for a space of time, pushing it to its limit, as if you were 'knocking in' a cricket bat.

Many people use different programs, such as F@H, SuperPi, and so on, but I've heard CPU Burn in it the most CPU intensive one there is, enabling a 100% load on the processor at all times.
Though the only real use for that is for testing for o/cing stability as quickly as possible in my eyes.
