Yeah, I can confirm this.
It appears that when you turn on HHVM it forces the default time setting
to be UTC, so if you're on a wiki which uses a non UTC default time zone
(usually the time zone of the region most using the language, we do this on
around 200 wikis) suddenly all of the times you are used to seeing (in the
history, recent changes, contributions, signature time stamps etc) change
what time they are showing which gets confusing.
This does not appear to happen if you have 'manually' set your time zone
(only if you are using the local default).
I'm going to file a bug now for it assuming someone else hasn't.

It has to do with timezone preferences. All times

in my edits states time two hour wrong
In am not sure what you mean with take timezone into account, I just
clicked into the box as stated in your mail, and then all times changed,
and when I took off the feature all times went back to correct time

Hi Anders,
Thanks for trying it out. Could you clarify what you mean? I don't see
anything wrong, but I'm not very observant. If you're comparing the
logged-in and logged-out views, did you remember to take into account the
timezone offset preference (if set)?
