The project says that it is non-cpu intensive. However, will it take cycles away from my other projects or is it completely not using the CPU?

When it says that it is non-CPU intensive, this means exactly that. It will run in the background using little CPU cycles, perhaps 1 every couple of hours. Really negligible. In any case less than your browser will take when it starts up and runs while you surf the net.
