HipHop
Appeared in 2010

HipHop for PHP is a source code transformer. HipHop programmatically transforms PHP source code into highly optimized C++ and then uses g++ to compile it. HipHop includes a code transformer, a reimplementation of PHP's runtime system, and a rewrite of many common PHP Extensions to take advantage of these performance optimizations. [1]

HipHop has been created by Facebook to save resources on their servers. They decided to release the code on February 2, 2010 as opensource. See http://github.com/facebook/

They also developed HPHPi, which is an experimental interpreter designed for development with no need to compile the PHP source code before running it.
