Am I right in my guess that while loading data tables from serialized files is faster than interpreting them in PHP, the situation is reversed in HipHop where tables can be precompiled?
Feel free to write benchmarks for those. We have a class to do so in maintenance/benchmarks .
HipHop compilation is straightforward (make sure to use the patches for libcurl and lib_I_DONT_REMEMBER). MediaWiki compilation can cause some troubles though.
You also want to contact Tim Starling to talk about it.
