HHVM is faster than the traditional PHP engine from ZEND and is used by Facebook to serve billions of web requests per day.

how. EXACTLY, do you modify this procedure to make wordpress work in subfolders, e.g. example.com/myblog/ and/or with seo-friendly urls like myblog/2015/06/hello-world ? Thx

Just a few comments:

  - After installing hhvm you must restart nginx to nginx know about hhvm

  - A shoter way of changing permisions is :  chown -R www-data: *

  - It is not necesary to edit wp-config.php by hand, once uncompressed and fixed permissions you can go to the browser and configure those parameter via web.

 

just my 2cents.

 I have downloaded the virtual machine from this tutorial and updated the ip address, but whenever I try to access the site the page doesnt load correctly and I can see the site still trying to call the old ip address of 192.168.1.100.   Any idea what else I need to change in the VM?

Here is a screenshot:

Change the IP in the /etc/hosts file as well. Then Login to the WordPress admin and update the website details to match your domain name before you try to access the WordPress frontend.
