Unless you are running something custom/unsupported, if you are using nginx/php-fpm you can just replace it with the HHVM FastCGI and get it to run your code really really fast.
It's great as it makes everything run a lot quicker for clients who use PHP, especially if you have code that needs to be run in PHP on the command line.

Well, it doesn't support mysqli_, which is a very common family of functions, especially since mysql_ is being deprecated. But a lot of stuff does run, as long as it doesn't need mysqli_.

Just run it and see :).
