CPU loading

  • busywait(seconds) - Like Base.sleep(seconds) except it maxes out the thread

For instance, for testing multithreaded CPU loading in Julia

using StressTest
Threads.@threads for _ in 1:4
    busywait(10)
end
(System monitor then shows julia ramping up to ~400% for 10 seconds)

PR's welcome!
