We've had nginx in production for three years. 20 billion requests. 458 live configuration changes. A dozen or more live binary upgrades. Countless DOS attacks.

One known failure. One. Because I was an idiot and tried to do something a little too clever in our configuration.

It's one of the best pieces of system software I've ever used. I can't thank Igor and the nginx community enough.
