Are there any large deployments of Rust outside Mozilla? (I'm not being sarcastic, just wondering who with resources besides Mozilla is incentivized to put money into Rust development.) Thanks!

The largest is currently Dropbox, who re-wrote the way they store the bytes on disk in Rust. It was deployed in late December, they have promised a report after it's been in production longer than a few weeks.
