Zusammenfassung:A method, system, and computer program product to verify management of real storage via multi-threaded thrashers in multiple address spaces are described. The method includes dynamically scaling a number of units of work and a number of address spaces based on a number of available processors and dynamically scaling an amount and page size of storage pages representing virtual storage accessed by each of the number of units of work based on a total available memory. The method also includes obtaining, at each of the units of work, different types of storage frame sizes and attributes, accessing the storage pages corresponding with the respective different types of storage frame sizes and attributes and performing a respective function, and verifying, for each of the units of work performing the respective function, a location of the storage pages and content of the storage pages based on the respective function.
