Bravo to the whole team. Nginx is the AK-47 of webservers: when you absolutely positively have to serve every single request, accept no alternative.

Beyond that, I've found both the built in modules and the addons to be excellent quality. I've instantaneously improved performance an order of magnitude for some applications just by dropping in nginx and a little bit of configuration. I've also created a global cdn that served hundreds of millions of video streams a month on a few commodity machines with nginx, all without a hitch.

Truly excellent software.
