Agreed! I'd like to see hhvm added. I just created the following issue:

https://github.com/TechEmpower/FrameworkBenchmarks/issues/41...

Also as per your information I just checked performance of Symfony2 and laravel against rails and django in multiple query section. Though those two PHP frameworks were at the bottom in single query tab, in multiple queries tab the situation just reversed http://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r6&hw=i7... . Interesting indeed.

AFAIK hhvm doesn't have namespace support yet. So Symfony2, laravel, ZF2 can not be run in it. But basic PHP performance would skyrocket I assume.

HHVM is moving fast - Namespace support arrived. I heard reflection compatibility with PHP.net needs some work. They are fixing bugs that prevent top PHP project from working.
