I doubt that there are any "magic settings" anywhere. The fact is, CF MX is a completely different engine than CF 5, so the appropriate tuning settings for CF 5 are largely irrelevant. Even with CF 5, optimal tuning settings had to be determined by load testing your servers with their specific applications. You'll need to repeat this process with CF MX. I suspect that the settings you end up with may be completely different. For example, there's a "simultaneous requests" setting; to determine the optimal value for this, you really had to do load testing under CF 5 or any prior version. The same is true for CF MX now, however its unlikely to be the same value as it was for CF 5. You might want to approach this "from scratch" - don't follow any assumptions about what works well with CF 5. Load test your individual application to find the bottlenecks, and identify the operations that are taking longer (and causing those bottlenecks). Again, they might not be the same set of operations that caused bottlenecks in CF 5. See what changes you can make in those operations, and test to see what difference those changes can make. Then, once you're done load testing your application specifically, use the same load test path to determine optimal settings for CF server tuning switches.
