In the past, I've done quite a few small live gigs running PTHD 5.3.2 on a Mac G4 733MHz, with a SCSI 10K RPM drive. Never had a problem. The rig was pretty rock solid stable. Your milage may vary. I've actually been pretty fortunate to never really have any instability problems with the 3 different PT setups I've had.

If you want to be extra careful you may want to bring a back-up recorder so that just in case PT crashes you still have a straight to tape/HD/(or dare I say DAT) recording running as a "fail-safe."
Good Luck.
