Wordpress.com switches to Nginx? 4 million page views per day.

[Bob Ippolito]

We do WAY more than 4 million HTTP requests a day at Mochi Media w/
Nginx, powering mochiads.com, mochibot.com, etc... and we've been
using Nginx for well over a year :) Good news!

(though we manage to do this with far fewer servers)
