Does anyone know of a tool that will stress out a CPU?

I'm looking for something (preferably cheap!) that can be used to test an applications response to a high workload on a PC/Laptop/Server.

Thanks.

Try using one of the many distributed computing applications out there. For increased stress, up the priority of the application.

There are several others, too.
