What do you consider 'large'? – Eaglebird Jan 15 '11 at 19:14

2`@Eaglebird:` It's tough, maybe impossible, to precisely define the kinds of websites understood to be "large". But I think we all know it when we see it. – Rudiger Jan 15 '11 at 19:29

@Rudiger: Have to disagree with you, "large" is so vague and subjective, it makes this question border on violation of the community standards. – gview Aug 27 '11 at 05:56

Interesting question - I've never heard of the ones mentioned so far though! – UpTheCreek May 17 '12 at 18:44

@gview: Flagged as "primarily opinion-based". – bwDraco Sep 09 '13 at 15:41

Mindvalley and Railscasts used to be hosted by Linode but moved to Slicehost.
Conan O'Brien's site teamcoco is hosted by linode, it has about 200K unique visitors (5-40 times more than the above mentioned sites), its Alexa rank is ~15,000
Mibbit is hosted by linode too, with 100K unique visitors.
Other notable sites include ModRails.com and Thoughtcrime.org

Last I've heard (some months ago) they were using two (now probably more) Linode 1024.

Two virtual servers with 1GB memory? that's very small. - He's asking about big sites! – UpTheCreek May 24 '12 at 13:45

Depends on the definition of "big sites". Mibbit is a well known website with lots of visits, so I consider it a "big site". – Diogo Gomes May 24 '12 at 22:00

That's just a marketing website. I can't imagine that requires 60 servers unless they are not caching anything! Or is there something else they are hosting? – UpTheCreek May 24 '12 at 13:47
