KevinM1 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Is facebook C++ not PHP runtime? I've read about HipHop. Facebook is basically PHP translated into C++, which is then compiled down into an executable. PHP, being interpreted, isn't all that efficient under the hood.

ManiacDan Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Wikipedia is PHP without any custom back-end, to my knowledge. Drupal, wordpress, etc. Most of the web is PHP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
