Using LiteSpeed Web Server for shared hosting environment 10
LiteSpeed 3.0 release offer full compatibilities with commonly used web hosting control panels like cPanel, DirectAdmin and Plesk, etc.
We expect LiteSpeed will at least double the server capacity and reduce server load by 5-10 times when Apache was replace, just because of LiteSpeed's high performance .htaccess implementation alone.
Hosting companies start to take advantage of this now.
www.mediaLayer.com, they even put up a press release here.
Also, www.eleven2.com starts to deploy LiteSpeed Web Server on their shared hosting servers with cPanel.
The feedbacks we got are all positive, pages get loaded faster, reduced memory usage and server load.
One of the feedback we got from one customer of eleven2.com, 30 minutes after the switch, the customer called eleven2, saying "What the crap, our site like a million times faster now!", that's a pretty large vBulletin forum. :-)
We expect to hear a lot more feedbacks like this. 8-)
How do you guys feel about www.modrails.com. Any chance of seeing a benchmark between litespeed and Apache+mod_rails?
Believe it or not, most ideas in mod_rails have been implemented in our ruby-lsapi long time ago. I expect it would be a good rails deployment environment, better than mongrel clusters. As to performance, I don't expect it could catch our ruby-lsapi as it is based on Apache.
We have no time to benchmark those two, however, we would like to provide all software/license and advices if someone would like to compare this two. And people usually do not give vendor's benchmarks much credit, third party one is much better.
No updates in over a year now :(
