IntelBurnTest is a tool that allows the user to benchmark their CPU by stress testing. Typically used by overclockers and general computer enthusiasts to see how well the cooling is in their case, used in conjunction with a temperature monitoring app such as HWiNFO. The user can also set how many times the tool is run each session, with the default being 10x.

A program that simplifies the usage of Intel(R) Linpack. Linpack by
Intel(R) is an extremely stressful program that will put even the most pow-
-erful X86/X64 CPU in the world at its knees. Load temp under Linpack will
be up to 22*C higher than the competing software Prime95. This program will
make usage of Linpack easier and more practical.
Downloaded the zip from the original forum source, unzipped to a folder, and it seems portable. No folders created in the user data folder, or entries in the registry from my searches.

The author has also given some advice to not increase the number of time to benchmark, saying beyond 20x is probably not worth it.

Searched, didn't find an existing entry. Might be a good app for the collection.

Little bump. Hoping this can be voted up to become visible as it's a useful app for testing CPU temps and stability. AFAIK it doesn't store settings to file or registry.
