Since its inception I've not had more than once round the houses at desdi, yesterday in point of fact we got messed around a little by UAE, thanks I think in part to the guy on freq getting a little frustrated with a couple of sub-continent airlines inbound to sharjah wanting to queue jump
We were handed off, went towards Girmi, and then a vector towards Sedpo descent 2000', cleared ILS 30L..and it was as busy as it gets on freq with the added enjoyment of single runway ops.
Thats been my typical experience since its inception, I think a larger issue is some of our colleagues are still either unwilling or unable to comply with basic speed instructions during the approach phase, particularly between 10 and 4 miles.
