Here is one that shows the dock instantly when it is set to Auto Hide;

defaults write com.apple.dock autohide-delay -float 0; defaults write com.apple.dock autohide-time-modifier -int 0;killall Dock

When moving to the Dock area, you'll see how freakin' fast it now appears.

You can undo this with:

defaults write com.apple.dock autohide-delay -float 0.5; defaults write com.apple.dock autohide-time-modifier -int 0.5 ;killall Dock
