Hi, Thank you for moving this into a separate thread. I'll look into HHVM in the following days/weeks but I think it's clear that HHVM brings some nice concepts both to the language and to the way PHP works, albeit compile it and so on. Also reading articles like this: http://ocramius.github.io/blog/accessing-private-php-class-members-without-reflection/ makes me very sad that this code is possible in PHP in order to overcome speed issues of the language. Could this be a topic of interest for more people, especially the core people?
