I'm migrating to HHVM across my whole stack. Massive performance gains, only issues have been with some plugins that I was able to pretty easily work around.

Good stuff! Uncached, HHVM outperforms my cached php-fpm sites.

I've been doing the same and so far have seen big performance gains as well. Using HHVM also has the benefit of being able to "tack on" any Hack code in the future if (for example) you have some important code which could benefit from static typing.
