Most holstered starts are "hands at sides", so lower-riding holsters could be a bit faster. The rules dictate how low is "low".
I like straight drop, and muzzle-forward cant is not allowed. The holster can't be worn far enough forward on the belt to really get an advantage from a muzzle-forward cant, as it puts the butt too far to the rear.
Cutting-down the front is probably as valuable as riding the holster as low as possible; theoretically an advantage, but don't know how much it really speeds the draw.
I'd never use any sort of retention device, other than a tension screw, on a competition holster (or belt-mounted carry holster, for that matter).
I like an oversized Hawaiian shirt as concealment garment.
