I've run it successfully in several of Seattle's large ecommerce data centers 
for over 10 years. Because of the nearly infinite configurability it 
outperformed commercial systems and became a much better fit in RHEL Linux and 
Oracle Linux systems, and Sun/Oracle Solaris than the less flexible commercial 
systems. Reliability has been very good - it runs autonomously and requires very 
little attention.
