Based on your experience, what kinds of clay/shape/size usually perform best with Dacong oolongs?

I've brewed them up in primarily in thin porcelain gaiwans and a thin Chao Zhou pot. For those that are a bit more challenging with sharp/bitter notes, I like the Chao Zhou better for smoothing things out; for those that are a little more delicate and forgiving, the porcelain.
