Would you mind running some numbers against "commodity
apps/frameworks" (e.g. Wordpress, ZendFramework, Laravel, etc...)  I
expect that will be far more telling (in a potentially positive way).
For example, HHVM performs best on "highly optimized code", which is
why it tends to look a bit tepid against PHP 7 when run on "normal"
codebases (particularly WP, which is in many ways not JIT friendly).
I realize the proof of concept jit branch is probably missing quite a
bit of optimizations compared to where it will land, so it may not
make then same kind of difference, but hey... curiosity killed the
cat.

Sounds very comprehensive and I'm glad you're using such a heavy
benchmarking suite. :D

Apologies if I gave the impression that I felt it was "bad".  My
expressed disappointment was only relative to the headline "ZOMGWTFBBQ
100% GAIN" headline (which I think most of us regarded as probably
wrong in some way due to the early-days nature of the jit branch). :)
