This repo defines a container image that will allocate a specified amount of CPU and memory for a specified period of time before sleeping
The container can be configured using the following environment variables:
| Env Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| DELAY | 10 | How long (seconds) to wait before allocating memory and CPU |
| MEMORY | 512m | The amount of memory the container should allocate |
| CPUS | 1 | The number of CPUS the container should fully utilize |
| TIME | 30 | How long (seconds) the container should use the requested resources |
Example Usage:
# Build the image using podman
podman build -t cpumem:latest .
# Create a container from the image. In this case the image will have a max
# of 5 CPUs (--cpus 5) and 5GB of RAM (-m 5g). The container will not allocate
# any resources until 10 seconds (-e DELAY=10) have elapsed. The container will allocate
# 5GB of RAM (-e MEMORY=500m) when it starts and will fully utilize 5 CPUS (-e CPUS=5)
# for a total of 30 seconds (-e TIME=30). After 30 seconds the cpu load will return to
# 0 and memory will be de-allocted.
podman run -it --rm --cpus 5 -m 5g -e DELAY=10 -e MEMORY=5000m -e CPUS=5 -e TIME=30 cpumem:latest
