No. (Though there maybe some hardware which may require TearFree by default to function correctly, in which case it will be enabled automatically.) The problem is that it increases memory allocation considerably and reduces performance, giving you the same penalty as using a compositor. If you then

The cause is that replies end up being blocked by the synchronous pageflip used for the tear free update of the scanout.
