I've tried Wing personally, but it was just too much pretty but superfluous GUI stuff all over the place.
As a primary editor I use xemacs21 in full-screen mode with everything extra disabled; I typically have 2-3 instances running (due to parallel development in multiple branches) with 200 open buffers.
I'd love to pay $$$$ for a GUI that would make more efficient but I sppose I may be stuck with xemacs forever.
Ropemacs was the last impressive thing I saw, but it was a bit buggy. I don't seem to have need for refactoring, tag search is enough for me to navigate and dabbrev-expand based on other buffers contents is usually enough for me.
