- | You'll want to use LiteSpeed Web Server to increase performance. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | ==== Install Web Server==== | + | |
- | If you search for ''LiteSpeed'', it will pop up from the **Plugins** section. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | {{:litespeed_wiki:cpanel:vultr-6.png?600|}} | + | |
- | + | ||
- | If you don't have a LiteSpeed license and you want to try it, choose **Request a trial license**. We recommend you enable PHP suEXEC. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | {{:litespeed_wiki:cpanel:vultr-7.png?400|}} | + | |
- | + | ||

- | + | ||
- | ====Disable Ruid2==== | + | |

- | + | ||
- | {{:litespeed_wiki:cpanel:vultr-10.png?600|}} | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Access **EasyApache 4 > Customize > Apache Module** and set **mod_ruid2** to ''Disabled''. | + | |
- | + | ||
