If im understanding correctly, the initial travel of the fork.
Assuming all things being equal, more preload on the PFP gives a firmer initial stroke, and less gives a softer one.
Its more complex than just that, as it is affected by valving as the others have said.
Say you were riding in the bush early in the day, then after lunch went to a faster, jumpy sort of track, you would probably give a turn in on the PFP to accommodate the faster riding later.
This is all relative, and some guys ride mx fast in the bush, but the bush/mx example is one that was often used to describe where you would use it.
The advantage, I think, is that you can have plusher valving for slower terrain, but then when you get to a faster track, you could crank up the PFP and you wont be beaten up so badly. It makes the fork more versatile before needing to be re valved.
