The eBay advert says 10us Step-Time. (which actually seems quite long).

It looks as a lot like this one:
www.leadshine.com/productdetail.aspx?typ...&series=M&model=M860
However the manual from there states 1.5uS step, 5uS setup time.
Start with 10uS for everything and see what happens. Direction setup/hold is never critical because (by definition) the machine is stopped during a direction change.

If you find yourself running out of speed you might consider shortening the step time, but in practice with software stepping you probably can't get the pulses much shorter anyway.
