Note - there is a thread about tipping the guys with the luggage carts; they can take you to the front of the taxi line if needed. I've never run into an inefficient taxi queue there, though (anything from walk-up to 5 minutes).

On top of that, Harrah's runs a free shuttle to/from the Rio to the Strip, for those who drink too much and are responsible enough not to drive (e.g. my good friends):
