Endurance test on a 2009 Atom N450 netbook! 🛠️
This Acer Aspire One always failed on standard Linux due to a frustrating #kworker CPU spike, making it unusable. We're challenging that with #BashCoreZ_RT for 48 hours.
Goal: Prove our extreme #PREEMPT_RT optimization can permanently eliminate this hardware bug and revive the PC. Superior software rescues vintage hardware. Wish us stability! 🤞

[Post-mortem: BashCore Stress Test Investigation]
Test ended on Day 5.
The system didn’t crash, but I noticed the fan was working overtime. The main suspect?
kworker/0:3+kacpid turns out it was busy with ACPI tasks (power management).
So technically… BashCore held up, but ACPI didn’t like the heat. Literally.
This is a known issue on older hardware with imperfect ACPI/BIOS support.Takeaway:
BashCore is stable, it’s the laptop that needs therapy 🤒
