I wasn't suggesting you try it on production.  If you have critical
production systems, I assume you also have development and stage hosts.
Ideally you would also have proof-of-concept or lab hosts where you can
test new technologies.  Once a technology works for you, you would move
it into your development areas, then stage, then production  :)
