"make sure inbound ethernet traffic to the SM is tagged correctly so
that voip, and only voip, ends up in the high priority channel."
What other applications are tagging packets with HP? Voice chat on
gaming systems?

We use 100 kbits per call session of G711U. We took a while to get a
good working config on junos to make sure only voip traffic comes in
to the SM tagged for high priority. The SM only goes by the Priority
Precedence selection to check either 802.1p or DSCP to determine
transmit channel and you need to make sure inbound ethernet traffic to
the SM is tagged correctly so that voip, and only voip, ends up in the
high priority channel.
We also ran into issues with burst allocation and burst rates. In
order for the high priority channel to work correctly on 450 platform
we found you must set the Sustained Uplink/Downlink Data Rate and the
Uplink/Downlink Burst Allocation to be the same (customer regular
bandwidth + high priority bandwidth) and the Max Burst Uplink/Downlink
Rates to double the Total Sustained Uplink/Downlink. We confirmed in
extensive testing that if we simply enable a high priority channel on
a normal customer, when the user maxes his upload or download we see
packet loss on the high priority channel even when the upload/download
is all low priority traffic and the high priority channel is not being
100% used.
Why is this? We're not sure but our network engineers did pretty
extensive testing and we consistently saw packet loss when configured
with a high priority channel and a "normal" customer deployment of
Sustained Down 4 Mbit / Sustained Up 1 Mbit, Downlink Burst Allocation
120000 and max burst downlink of 10000.

What do other operators set for the High Priority Uplink / Downlink CIR
that works best for VOIP?
