It depends on your hash rate.  Pools such as BTC Guild will adjust your difficulty as needed, so you can just leave it at the default value.  If your pool doesn't do this, you could start at the minimum difficulty and then increase it until you are submitting a share once every 2-4 seconds.  If your mining hardware has a delay before it is able to start a new work unit, you might want to increase this interval even more so that you reduce the overall time your miner is idle.
