Call for testing: The unofficial Prime95 snap

I would like to announce a call for testing for the unofficial Prime95 snap. Prime95 is a volunteer computing project dedicated to searching for Mersenne primes. It is also used in overclocking to test for system stability.

How to install

Get it from the Snap Store

or, in a terminal:

snap install prime95

What to test

  • Can you properly launch the application?
  • Can you run the stress test without issues? (Errors due to resource exhaustion is not considered to be a bug)
  • Do you notice any problems while running the application?
