Anyone in this space would already have been using apache or nginx, which are in C or C++. How mature are rust's HTTP implementations?

Used by real companies at scale. The primary maintainer of the largest one even works at Amazon, though I don’t know if they use it in a network-facing way there. You can also do what folks do in other languages too, and put nginx out in front, if you prefer.

Seems relevant.
I can see Rust being attractive for high-traffic network apps, based on the idea of requests-per-second not being amortized over GC pauses.
