But don't you have to manually stop it when you want all your CPU power

and

then remember to start it again?

Nope.  Just fire and forget.  The CLI defaults to idle priority so it'll
cede processor cycles to pretty much anything else you are doing all by
itself.

FWIW, I'd suggest taking a few minutes to set up either SETI Driver/SETI Spy
to cache some work units and give you some feedback on stats OR SETI Hide to
accomplish the same thing.  If "bother" is a factor, SETI Hide is probably
the easiest route to take.
