From what I have been told, it is in use at a large nationwide diagnostic lab services provider (the kind of place where one goes for blood tests) and supports 20-30,000 concurrent users in daily production use. Also, because of HIPAA regulations, that implementation undergoes annual penetration testing by one of the large ethical cracking outfits, and passes the tests every year. It is promoted by the guys who sell consulting and training services for it. It's also dual licensed. That's a common business model in the FOSS world. Note: EWD is not a toolkit. It is intended for use with a toolkit such as ExtJS.
