Choosing what PPR you want to use is like many things in engineering, it depends.
Generally speaking, Low RPM favors higher PPR and vice verse. That is a GENERAL rule, not a hard and fast one. Again, it depends. It depends on what you want to do, control speed, distance, or both. What also plays into the decision is what control method you are using. There are trade offs with every choice.
The best thing you can do is test out different approaches during the off season.
