Hi ... even if the tool (whatever it is) does not require much system resources it triggers processes in order to measure their or the system's performance. So long as you do not push the system to or over the edge you might not get valuable numbers. So I mean, any performance measuring does or must stress the system. That is at least my understanding. So probably running performance tests on a production server is not the very best idea.
