Default Data Execution Prevention (DEP)

[Win 7 Pro SP1 64-bit with I7-4930K CPU]

Several years ago it was difficult to use the DEP capability provided by
modern hardware because both older programs and the OS played silly
tricks to save a microsecond here and there. I, like most of you I
presume, only turned on DEP capability for OS functions. My question is
what is recommended for today given that I'm no longer running all those
old 95, 98, and XP programs that I thought I couldn't live without? Is
it now standard to turn DEP on for everything? It's been years since
I've seen any discussion of this topic and I'd like to get caught up.
