Ask HN: best php deployment setting

[hyuen]

Hi all, I am setting up a webserver with php + mysql, and was wondering which is the recommended web server these days.

Also, how realistic/stable is hip hop over wordpress? did some google searches, but didn't find much about it.

Thanks

nginx+APC+WP-Super-Cache should be able to capably handle a non-trivial amount of traffic on relatively minimal hardware specs.
