Yea.  If the cedet guy is listening... I had the same experience.  I've tried very hard at least twice to set it up and make it productive but I failed both times.

Back in 1990 or so, I hooked up cscope to emacs, (and others have too), and I've yet to see anything, even Java IDEs, that approach the power of just those two things.
