Has anyone had any success adjusting the above settings and had a positive (read: decrease) in stales/rejects/whatever?

I've been playing with them and haven't felt any change in anything at all.
 
I don't think there is much you can do about stales and rejects other than adjust intensity or change pools. And I think the latter is generally more effective.

What are you getting now and what settings are you using?

Depends on pool. Anywhere from <1% on single coin pools to ~7-9% on coin switching pools. All normal from what I've read. Curious on other people's experiences.
 
I'm on trademybit which is a multipool and average about 1%. I don't think it switches between coins as often as other pools but other pools might be more effective at mining the most profitable coin.
 
On my 7079s I use 7:28:0 (scan/expiry/queue) usually I end up with 92% wu with that
290s i use 1:1:0 again 90-92% WU

Interesting. I'll try these with my 290s to see if it makes a difference. Regarding rejects, I've read that your ping to the pool server is the most important factor (along with thread-concurrency supposedly).

Most of it feels like voodoo. One thing I've found that directly correlates to rejects is what coin is being mined, how much has is being tossed at it, and super fast block times. Recently my reject went crazy high, but stratum was spamming the cgminer console with new block every 6-30 seconds.
