It would be awesome to have some sort of recent data on the big gun  
rails  
sites. I have to include some examples in a statement of work to get  
RoR  
approval for the project. The client is concerned with scaling issues.  
What are the big sites out there now? Basecamp? Shopify? 43things?  
Chowhound? Wish I had some numbers (#users, #pageviews) etc to throw on  
there.

Thanks

This isn’t exactly what you need but here’s a start:
