increase load for testing

Hi,

Anyone know of a good procedure or command that will significantly increase the load of my server without crashing it?

I want to run some threshold tests and monitor load, cpu and memory usage.

Thanks

Chris.

for cpu you can use something like
echo "9999999^999999" | bc

for memory hmmm... use java Smilie
