I'm afraid it is not that deterministic.  I posted a program like
this a year or two ago.  I had used it for months with no problem (leaving
it on over weekends and such), but some people experienced system
panics that were believed to be related.  You can certainly try the
program, but if you see unexplained panics you didn't have before,
you might want to discontinue use.
