I ran stats on the type parameters on Rust's master branch.
(I was dumb and only sent this to Ben Striegel last time. My fault for
not knowing how to use an email client.)

I had to do part of this by hand (thanks to false positives and it
being cumbersome to script for lifetime parameters) but I ran
ag "pub.*struct.*<.*(?<!')\w>" > typed
in the rustc directory, did my best to weed out false positives, and
then counted by crate both the total and the number with only one
parameter.
So these numbers could be off by a bit - it's possible to write
structs that the regex above won't match, and it's possible that
somewhere I made a mistake counting things, but this should give a
nice rough idea.
- 160/191 (84%) parameterized structs in the "standard crates" take
only one type parameter.
- 40/50 in libcore
- 9/10 in librand
- 5/5 in liballoc
- 1/1 in debug
- 5/5 in librustrt
- 1/1 in libtest
- 2/2 in libterm
- 23/24 in libsync
- 3/3 in libserialize
- 19/28 in libstd
- 8/8 in libsyntax
- 27/34 in libcollections
- 11/14 in librustc
- 2/2 in libgreen
- 1/1 in libnative
- 1/1 in libarena
- 2/2 in libnum
For traits:
- 52/74 (70%) of parameterized traits take one type parameter.
- 23/37 in libcore
- 1/1 in librustrt
- 1/3 in libgraphviz
- 4/4 in librand
- 1/1 in libterm
- 4/6 in libserialize
- 11/13 in libcollections
- 2/3 in librustc
- 2/3 in libstd
- 1/1 in librustdoc
- 1/1 in librustuv
- 1/1 in libsyntax
