Performance Control app, overclocking

Has anyone tried installing the Performance Control app and messing with the CPU settings? Is there any reason why this shouldn't work? I tried searching but didn't find any info on this. It might be cool to have a possibility of overclocking the device, or potentially underclocking it to improve battery life.

I'm using the latest Slimkat, and I love it. Haven't tried CM yet.
