The document compares HHVM (HipHop Virtual Machine) and PHP 7, highlighting their performance improvements and competitive features. While HHVM, developed by Facebook, uses a just-in-time compilation system to enhance speed, PHP 7 promises double the performance of PHP 5 and has garnered support from its developer community. Both technologies have their unique advantages, with PHP 7 being independent and easily transitioning code from earlier versions, while HHVM excels under high traffic scenarios.
Hhvm vs php
- 1. HHVM Vs PHP 7 Who Wins the competition? Presented by Zafong Technologies LLP
- 2. HHVM ( Hip Hop Virtual Machine) • Performance is a main concern in the growing digital world!! A well performing website is the necessity of all the web development companies. HHVM was developed to overcome the performance issues in Facebook, which helps to operate the social media quickly and efficiently. • HHVM is a virtual machine that executes PHP code. • It was initiated by the social media giant Facebook to improve its overall performance • HHVM uses Just in Time (JIT ) compilation system that converts the PHP code into bytecode, which is then converted into machine code. This machine code is optimized to run as quickly as possible. • It was able to handle more traffic compared to the previous tools. • Since Facebook users are increasing day by day, a highly efficient virtual machine will benefit social media users with great speed.
- 3. PHP 7- Jump start to high performance • PHP is the most popular scripting language used in the development of websites. • PHP 7 is the latest version of PHP scripting language which offers faster performance. • PHP 7 was released at the end of November 2015 which assured to provide double performance of a website. • PHP 7 is developed from the community of PHP developers as a response to HHVM. • PHP 7 assured to give 100 percent performance improvement compared to PHP 5. • The developers talk about PHP 5 and PHP 7 but there is no development in PHP 6. PHP 6 was initiated in the year 2005, since the project took a long time for its development, hence it created a bad reputation before its release.
- 4. PHP 7 Vs HHVM – What are the reasons for Competing? When both PHP7 and HHVM come with the same tag high performance, then obviously there is a competition between choosing the right platform. What creates a reason for this competition? •Code interpretation – interpreting the code is the first difference in PHP 7 and HHVM, PHP 7 uses the standard PHP interpreter to convert the PHP code and generates HTML code that makes the desired content visible for the readers. HHVM converts the code into bytecodes. These bytecodes are translated into machine code which optimizes to give better performance. •Code – PHP interpreter and HHVM uses the same code for execution. Hence writing the code is similar in both PHP 7 and HHVM. To use HHVM, install it on your server and call it using the hhvm command on the command line. •On completion of the benchmark testing, it is assumed that PHP 7 is slightly faster that HHVM in certain situations.
- 5. PHP 7 Vs HHVM – Future of HHVM • Website is a crucial point in creating an online presence. There are a lot of companies already using HHVM to improve their website performance. • Wikimedia is an online educational reference that also includes Wikipedia encyclopaedia contents. Wikimedia should be optimized to deliver instant results according to the high demand. HHVM helps in providing quick results compared to PHP. The average page load time is decreased from 1.3 seconds to just 0.9 seconds. • The future of HHVM is almost accomplished. Facebook continues to develop HHVM. Facebook has announced support for Mac OS X, which makes it easy for the developers to work with Apple environment. • HHVM developers firmly believe that it is faster than PHP 7 in most of the circumstances.
- 6. PHP 7 Vs HHVM – Future of PHP 7 • The future of PHP 7 is bright, since it’s a latest programming language developers believe that PHP 7 will optimize their web development. • Most of the companies have not yet started the implementation of this programming language, but the benchmark test results of performance of PHP 7 could tempt the companies use PHP 7. • PHP 7 exhibits high performance in WordPress compared to HHVM.
- 7. PHP 7 Vs HHVM – Benefits of Using HHVM • Dynamic translation is the main advantage of using HHVM, it delivers faster performance in certain situations including WordPress. • If HHVM is filled with huge requests, then it takes a minimum memory to process each request. • HHVM can run most of the PHP frameworks and applications. • HHVM developers are working on improving the number of PHP code base that can run in the engine. • HHVM is an open source platform, the code is easily available and any user can use or edit it.
- 8. PHP 7 Vs HHVM – Benefits of Using PHP 7 • PHP 7 advances HHVM in certain situations, it works faster than HHVM when running on Drupal and the latest versions of WordPress • PHP 7 is independent, so it’s not necessary to install HHVM. • Code transition is another advantage, the code written in PHP 5 is ready to be executed in PHP 7, this means that any code created is ready to be executed in PHP 7. • PHP 7 is developed by the PHP community developers, who are well known for their stable PHP releases. • PHP 7 is developed from a reputed brand, hence we can expect faster performance and reduced number of errors.
- 9. PHP 7 Vs HHVM – Which is your choice? PHP 7 is a latest version of the team of PHP developers. Since it promises outstanding performance, most of the web development companies are ready to choose PHP 7. PHP 7 offers a better performance compared to the older versions in totality. This never lack HHVM in the competition, Web development companies are still using HHVM and it provides a great edge in faster development under certain circumstances. Facebook is still working on advanced development of HHVM and PHP 7 developers are also working for its recent developments. Hence, both have a head to head competition, in which the choice is yours. The faster you make the decision between PHP 7 and HHVM, it will help you to optimize your website’s performance. Make your choice and make your website perform well!!
