Yes, IstantCommons is great, but I wouldn't call it "really usable". We use it on http://www.wikimedia.it and we often have random errors like http://www.wikimedia.it/index.php/File:Failed_to_open_stream.png , especially with big images like those added here http://www.wikimedia.it/index.php/5_anni,_5_milioni_di_file_multimediali_su_Wikimedia_Commons (obviously this is more frequent when the image scalers are busy; and looks like it's happening less frequently, lately, but I'm not sure).
