PRFT elements has a significant bitrate overhead, especially in streaming mode 
when each frame is a moof fragment.
In terms of percentage of stream's bitrate this overhead will be a significant 
% for lower bitrate streams(such as audio streams).
For any application which does not need PRFT this is an unnecessary wastage of 
bits. 
Hence, I would advise against enabling PRFT without user control.
