Hiya,

when running Torture test in blend mode, what does more and less tests mean? For example, I have 4 tests for 1024 K, and 4 or 5 tests for 8K. Does this number mean anything?

it means that it tests 1024k 4 times and 8k 4 or 5 times.
nothing varies thats just how many its doing

Most people say 24hour is good, even others say 48hours. There are some stories about prime erroring out @ like 30hours. Personally, D2OL stable is alot harder than Prime95. Also, SPI32mb is very hard.

Normally each test is set for 15 mins, so it figures out how many to run of each test to get to that 15 mins

Sometime the number changes in the middle even. No issues here. Its OK.

Fast CPUs get more of each test!
