Jumbo frame

Hello colleagues,

I have a 1GB network infrastructure but would like to know the impact of configuring Jumbo frame support on my 250MB WAN link to my DRC site having Cisco 6509 switches at both locations. The link is terminated on 1GB interfaces but has 250MB capacity. I learnt it's advisable to configure 9126 mtu for 1gb but less for any value below this. Was wondering the best value to set for my scenario and the possible impact this could have on my other applications transiting this link but using 1500 mtu.

Any suggestions?
Thanks
