Well PHP is pretty fast, at least compare to Ruby. So making PHP twice as fast without JIT is an huge achivement.
I too wish Ruby get some performance love as well. But Ruby is a compartively small commuities, and without the backing of Giants like Facebook and Zend, it will be a long while before we see RubyJIT arrives.

May I ask you where I can find the numbers for PHP being faster than Ruby? (because Internet, this is not bait or snark, it's a real question).
PHP is an utter failure. Why on earth would one use "secure" as a subdomain? I can tell it's secure because it uses HTTPS. Also get a grip on reality and stop using SHA-1.
Is PHP used anywhere except Zend and facebook? All this time I have heard of x web framework for Go, Python, Rust, Racket what not, I rarely have heard about PHP apart from the what's going to be new in PHP 7 few months back.
Obvious it is being used.
It would have died out long ago otherwise.
Many MANY sites run PHP underneath.
I'm assuming this was a troll?
Here are some stats in any case: http://w3techs.com/technologies/details/pl-php/all/all
That was the first result when I searched "PHP market share"

Two more releases after this and PHP will be an OK language.
Plausible, but man, that's not a development velocity that matches the modern world.
1) Meh, it's still PHP
2) Easy to go twice as fast when the language is so slow to begin with
But really I'm not kidding myself, I'm envious. I don't know if the work on PHP-related tools by Facebook somehow helped, but I'm glad for all PHP developers to see their language maturing and getting more consistency and speed, good on them.
