In principle, the larger input values will generate better quality, but accompanying with larger file size; the smaller input values will produce smaller file size, but in accordance with more inferior file quality. Due to this, you’d better make a balance between the output file size and the output file quality. If you are not good at configuration, you can totally skip this step.
