AFAIK HZ=1000 has been the default since 6.0.

The only tuning suggestion relative to HZ its to lower it on less
powerful systems where such granularity isn't needed.

BTW HZ setting can be done in loader.conf at boot time, no need for
recompilation.

I think at present it can work fine with the HZ=1000 default. To know if
that's ok for your workload can only be verified with testing.
