Most people like using as little effects/dynamic processing as they can on the way in so they have a clean signal to work with and try things on. I'd use a limiter on the way in just to prevent any clips and then experiment with compression after it's on tape.

Go in clean, and do your processing later. In some cases you might want some light compression going in, like on a bass or a vocalist who has a wide dynamic range. But if possible, don't use the 266 on the input chain.

Kind of a loaded question as most compressor plug ins totally suck... but the DBX 266 may be one of the worlds most rancid sounding pieces of shit... is there a "none of the above" option?

Given my preference, I would have about 6 vintage dbx 160's in my drive rack. Alas, I am stuck with three 266's. As stated, definitely not what you would want to use for a final recording! For home demo's, they work well.
As stated earlier though, good advice is to record as much as you can without any outboard processing at all.
