We've only disabled it on a per-share basis (we have several hundred NFS servers we connect to, and only have had this issue on a few of them). To my knowledge we haven't had any integrity issues. That said, our workload is likely different than yours.. we have probably only a small number of developers hitting those shares, so I can't predict how the results would change if they were more heavily used.
