Great! Don't forget what I said about potential overheating if you
hit the server with as many requests as it can handle.
Frankly, if you can overheat a server by hitting it with HTTP requests,
get better hardware and/or put it into a place with better airflow.
Frankly, if you have a server-grade machine then well and good but if
you are running a nice quiet consumer grade laptop - my development
machine - you need to be careful.
A properly designed laptop with a non-broken OS will not overheat
regardless of the computing load you throw at it. The fan might get
annoying loud, but if it overheats either your hardware or OS needs
to be fixed.
A nice theory but nothing to do with the real world. I've had a number
of laptops that overheat (or would, if I let test program continue)
running this test program. They have been different brands, different
CPUs, different levels of noisy fans. I don't know how I would find one
of your "properly designed laptops with a non-broken OS", or what could
be done to fix it. Maybe a high-end gaming machine... which I don't
wish to invest in or hear the fan noise from.
Anyway, the point was to warn other people - who probably also wouldn't
have a "properly designed laptop with a non-broken OS" - that they
should keep an eye on their CPU core temperatures. In my experience,
that's a real concern, whether or not it "should not" be an issue.
