How good is your rogue? Does he/she have lots of SP in Search, as well as a lot of points in Disable Device? Is he/she a somewhat pure rogue or one of these Wizzy X/Rogue 2 characters that tend to take the attitude of "I'll disable the easy traps, try to use mirror image on the not-so-easy ones, and just let my high HP tank suck up the damage on the Toughest ones"?
I've never had any serious trouble with that trap with a truly good rogue, but I can see that a marginal rogue might have trouble if he's only good enough to deal with the easiest of traps.
