Hi there, I'm looking for an app/script that will run some prime-tests on a N900.
The reason I'm asking is because my N900 doesn't like to be clocked at lower voltages, it'll cause fileysstem-corruption and crashes.
Even the ideal profile (used on nitdroid by default) causes glitches on my phone, so I guess I'm one of the unlucky ones.
I can however clock all the way to 950MHz at the stock voltages but that'll cause heavy battery-drainage of course.

So an app or script that would for example clock it at 250MHz @ stock voltage and then runs some primes to see how the cpu handles it, and then goes one voltage step lower and run the test again, untill the primes start failing.
Then it should try the next frequency @ stock voltage, run prime test, lower voltage, run prime test again etc..

The outcome would be a list of frequencies at the lowest possible voltage for the device.

It would be a good thing since then you know for sure that the voltage used for the frequency will not glitch and cause corruption/crashes etc.
Because you never know how stable your voltages/frequencies are even if you don't encounter crashes.

I guess the device should be on the ac-adapter and all other apps/daemons that write to the filesystem should be temporary stopped when the tests are running.

Any ideas?
