I encountered problems with PerfectDisk 14 boot-time defragmentation with the compact option on.
The error was a blue-screen 'Process1_Initialization_Failed' error.
When I turned it off, as the Perfect Disk support suggested, it worked OK.
My laptop has it disabled because it has a Solid State drive. Usually the SSD firmware already compresses stuff that it deems appropriate, so this is quite understandable.
I guess if you have plenty of disk space, there's no good reason to turn this on. Performance probably won't improve - the file may be smaller, but the decompress takes longer.
I think this is one reason the Windows 10 startup time seemed to be getting longer - all those stuff getting decompressed...
EDIT: Perfect Disk just got updated to fix this problem.
