Overview for hhvm

Dear PHP, the times are a-changin'

The PHP community has been buzzing about all the significant releases such as PHP 7, Symfony 3 and Drupal 8 in 2015. With improved userland application frameworks, better performance and lower memory usage PHP is about to be better than ever.

Yet the world is changing and maybe PHP shouldn't (or can't) even try to keep up with the Joneses.

Serving PHP on HTTP/2 with H2O and HHVM (Symfony, WordPress, Drupal...)

HTTP/2 as a protocol was locked down in February 2015 and published in the May of same year. It's the first major revamp of the most important (IMHO) protocol since 1999. It's no silver bullet, but the upgrade offers improvements that will make a big difference when applied in scale. Help save the planet (yes, really) and start deploying today!
