This program gets the CPU warmed up and exercises memory heavily. If it finds even a single error, don't bother with anything else until it can run without error overnight.
Also, you can run the latency test for a few hours, and exercise web browsers, USB memory stick inserts/removals, glxgears and other operations to see if the latency gets bad. If these two tests reveal no problems, then I agree with others that the computer is NOT at fault, it has to be the motion drivers. They could be defective, the step pulse timing could be wrong for them, the parallel port drive could be insufficient, or the accel and max velocity settings could be too high for the motors you have.
