What would be the best chain of effects?

Wanted to get some thoughts on how and why you would chain this signal path. The main question would be Compressor first or last?

These are my planned or already in use effects:

Boss TU-2 Tuner (Default first)
Boss OC-3 Super Octave (rarely use it, maybe once a night)
T.C. Electronics Chorus+ (use it on a few tunes, maybe 2 or 3)
SansAmp VT-Bass (use it when I switch to a passive bass)
BBE Opto Stomp Compressor

I'm certainly going to experiment with the chain, but wanted to hear your ideas.
