  1. memtest is a utility for testing the memory subsystem in a computer
  2. to determine if it is faulty. The original source was by Simon
  3. Kirby <sim@stormix.com>. The program has been rewritten by Charles
  4. Cazabon and many additional tests were added to help catch borderline
  5. memory. He also rewrote the original tests (which catch mainly
  6. memory bits which are stuck permanently high or low) so that they
  7. run approximately an order of magnitude faster.
