Its a good investment if you plan to increase your server's performance, but don't want to upgrade hardware.
We found that we could process thousands or tens of thousands of requests per second on Litespeed while using only a fraction of the system resources Apache would require under the same workload.
Litespeed web server has allowed us to triple our capacity for requests and therefore generate more revenue per server.
Large websites with heavy loads appreciate the fact that they can get the increased performance they require... Many of our smaller clients have found that because they often get the bulk of their traffic in short bursts of time the LiteSpeed services are a great way to keep their site loading smoothly...
Our customers are able to handle much more traffic than they could with Apache and we’re able to add nearly double the number of sites per server without sacrificing crucial load times.
We love LiteSpeed! For small and large deployments, LiteSpeed is our go-to web server, not only for its high performance, but also for its ease of use and installation.
Litespeed is deployed on all of our shared and reseller servers, and we recommend the software to VPS users looking for that extra speed boost for their sites.
SigmaWeb's experience shows how LiteSpeed Web Server's event-driven architecture and optimized coding can cut the load for popular web applications like WordPress. LiteSpeed slashed the number of processes the server had to create, reducing overhead — and this improvement was available in minutes through our cPanel plugin.
While nginx as a reverse proxy only helps static content, LiteSpeed Web Server can do wonders for web applications like XenForo. With our control panel plugins, you can switch to LiteSpeed in minutes, making LiteSpeed Web Server a quick and easy way to rein in an out of control site or web application.
WiredTree uses LiteSpeed Web Server to give their VPS and dedicated server customers a cost-effective solution to overloaded servers. Instead of continually throwing more and more hardware at the problem, switching to LiteSpeed Web Server cuts out the source of the problem — Apache's inefficient architecture. Switching takes only minutes and pages stay consistently fast.
