I had problems when using with tramp over ssh. Also on systems with
very large number of users, going to some one else's shared folder
posed a huge problem. Emacs would hang as ido attempted to look for
possible completions. I also felt although finding existing files was
easier, creating new ones was very clunky. But then I tried it quite a
while back, and I didn't really try to customise anything.
