As a general case, no, it's not recommended to use close_eof unless it fits your use case and you understand its implications of potential data loss.

Have a look at the documentation for the various close_* settings and how they relate to each other:

If you want to make sure beats has to stop once your current input source reach to end then you can use it.
But this is not a good way to configure.
