| LSCache's features are very similar to those in Apache mod_cache, but implemented in a more efficient way. LiteSpeed cache works like Varnish. It is an output cache for dynamic contents, so the usage is not limited to PHP pages. Unlike Varnish, LiteSpeed cache is built into LiteSpeed's web server, thus eliminating one layer of reverse proxy. This translates into higher efficieny for static contents. The uniqueness of LiteSpeed cache is that it uses rewrite rules (either in configuration files or .htaccess) to control its behavior for maximum flexibility. | LSCache's features are very similar to those in Apache mod_cache, but implemented in a more efficient way.
