I have the following for a site with VOIP and a pretty narrow outbound pipe. I have no idea if it is ideal. To me, the most critical setting is TCDEVICES. If you can tweak this while the line is being heavily utilized, you can set this progressively lower until there is a dramatic reduction in latency (which I simply use response in my remote SSH session to determine). Not scientific, but it seems to work for me. For the rest of it, I relied heavily on shorewall.net and Tom's examples.
