Since I started using PTFE on my olives, none of them have leaked.
Once Ive made a compression joint, I usually run a bit of solder between the base of the nut and the copper pipe. It can make undoing them again quite tricky. Dont get many leaks though.

You try getting a 42mm compression joint to exert enough pressure onto a copper olive to create a leak free joint without packing the olive with ptfe.
