I don't know GeoMoose, but for MapServer you can use PROJECTION objects, 
as described in 
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/mapfile/projection  See the 
"Important Notes" section of that page.

This seems to be specific to GeoMoose, so you should ask on its own 
mailing list (subscribe at 
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geomoose-users)

By the way, you might want to use the MapServer shp2img utility (with 
the '-all_debug 5' switch) to see draw speeds for your layers.

POSITION UC should place the label above and POSITION LC below in the 
simplest cases...maybe you should include your layer snippet and a 
screengrab of your problem, to this email list.

MS4W is configured for the following settings:

   IMAGEPATH "/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp/"
   IMAGEURL  "/ms_tmp/"

Your mapfiles should use those values...which means that the images will 
be written to C:/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp (for example).

Again this is best asked on the GeoMoose mailing list.
