The longer the delay, the smaller the "effective" part of the filter
(tail).

What I recommend: 
1) Read the *new* version of the manual (the one on the website hasn't
been updated in a while)
2) record your input and output to a file so you can look at them and
perform AEC offline (i.e. you can actually see what happens)
3) Have a look at Echo Cancellation Demystified
