actually surprised that wpengine didn't go for compiling wordpress into executable (cgi ?) till now.
they shoe nice improvment but I wonder how much improvement do you get over using APC and object caching, After all it is not a surprice that when you embed the PHP core into a webserver you get faster execution of PHP based pages
and the whole point of HHVM for facebook was to enable faster code distribution to servers, something that I assume most wpengine clients don't care about.

what HHVM has to do with deploy?...

php source code is much smaller then executable
this is why they didn't want to continue compiling their PHP

you mean as a change from hip hop? well, yeah, but as far as I remember HHVM is faster than hip hop by now
Mark Kaplun
Mark Kaplun
yes, but they work hard to get there
might have got the same result with HH if they continued working on it

isn't PHP-NG faster in some respects?

will see when it gets stable :) I am not keen on HHVM anyway... everyone using still saying it crashes a lot, etc
case in point — WP Engine thing which has to keep PHP fallback around for when HHVM takes a nap

Ugh, the language in that WPEngine blog post. "Apply for consideration" to determine whether you're worthy enough to get onto a hosting stack that just about brings WPEngine up to date. I don't think so

Yeah, I would have hoped for a bit more humility and less of the "your site is too small for us to bother with" attitude. Oh well, they remain on the "Do not use" list
