Make memory test not stop after error is found #50

Open mankeli opened 3 years ago

It would perhaps be useful to keep the memory test running even after errors are found.

For example I only saw bit 2 to be broken after running the test several times, swapped out the chip and bit 2 is not broken anymore. But now bit 5 gives errors after a longer period of running. I would have been nice to catch both of those on one go.

Well... maybe, I'm not sure how common this would be, really. Also in larger memory systems you would not know which memory area caused which bit error. Unless I updated the reporting, somehow.

Perhaps I should make it an option.
