Scaling with HipHop

on YouTube ↗44m

" summary

HipHop is Facebook’s PHP compiler/runtime that converts PHP to bytecode then JITs to native code, claiming about 500% performance gain over old PHP (code dependent) while showing ~100% on WordPress; production traffic already runs on HHVM and hphc build times once take ~20+ minutes. It includes repo authoritative mode for prebuilt bytecode, a CLI hhvm, XHP (XML-like templates), and Hack (optional static typing); parity gaps remain (extensions, namespaces), Ubuntu is the supported platform, and documentation and dependency versions are brittle.
