Guys,

I am wondering if any of you some apps that could be considered the  
biggest app on Rails.  
I am making some research on the subject but I can’t find much info  
about it.

Thanks,  
Diego L.

Revolution Health: ( [www.revolutionhealth.com](http://www.revolutionhealth.com) ) is quite big size wise

Twitter ( [www.twitter.com](http://www.twitter.com) ) is massive usage wise

Those are the first two that pop into my head.

I mean size wise.

What do you think it is “big” for the rails world? 50 controllers?  
100? 100 models? more?

Thanks!

[ilike.com](http://ilike.com) seems to be getting quite popular (millions of users I  
believe, though that includes Facebook API users).
