Good qdisc for routers?

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

Hi,
I'm setting up a linux box as a router/firewall and I'm wondering if there are any best practices with regards to network settings that should be tweaked in this situation. In particular I'm wondering if the default pfifo_fast is susceptible to a single flow flooding the buffer and causing other flows to lose packets? Is there an alternative that would work better in terms of fairness but doesn't create too much overhead or is overly complicated to configure?
The system has 1Gbit interfaces.

Regards,
  Dennis
