Greetings!

/bin/hdstress is what is called by the builder after everything is done. I have used it in the past. I am almost certain it is read only, but I have never really proven that. At least, I have never found any nastiness occuring from running it. Probably best to have someone who knows better confirm that, but it is a handy tool.
