I am looking for a "killer" memory test for the Amiga.  I've designed
and built a home-brew expansion memory card and need some way to prove
to myself that it really works.  The card appears to work fine except
when I run the LINES demo from the expansion ram and resize the window 
alot. Anyways, it passes all the memory tests I've been able to write in 
both assembly language and C.  All the tests I have tried simply write out 
various patterns and check to make sure the patterns can be read back.  
Unfortunately the fastest test I could write accessed one word of expansion 
ram every 2 micro seconds.   I'm hoping to find a memory test that keeps
the busses much more active.  Has anybody got the worm memory test posted
to the net a couple months ago working on the amiga?  Any help will be
appreciated.
