title: simulate high cpu load for java development
body: <p>I'm developing a Java app and would like to see how it runs on slower/overloaded machines. (I suspect there may be some thread unsafe issues, etc. that get ignored because my machine just compiles it quickly enough.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to simulate high CPU load/limit available CPU for the Java app?  Of course, I could write a script to actually overload my CPU with various tasks, but I would prefer to keep the rest of my OS running smoothly and not overheat my machine, if possible.  Is there an easy/known way to do this?</p>
  
  <p>I am currently using Eclipse Kepler as my IDE, but would be willing to switch if another could do this natively.</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: I'm working in Windows, forgot to clarify. :)</p>
