Redis can be used as an alternative to memcached, and function as the job queue (no more running runJobs.php)

Redis with HHVM as Session Handler

Redis support is built into HHVM. You can just set redis as a save handler in HHVM, rather than using files.

/etc/hhvm/php.ini
session.save_handler = redis
session.save_path = "tcp://localhost:6379"
