DHCP Relay / IP Helper on switch or router

Hello team,

I've been wonder what best practice is regarding dhcp relay.
It is Currently running on a Juniper firewall which works fine, but i've been reading a bit.

If i set the switches on-site with the ip helper command, it converts the broadcast request to unicast and sends it directly to the DHCP server. Would that reduce the overall broadcast traffic?
