I Find it funny how this thread is all about how litespeed is the best http server and provides better up-time... Yet I try and go to their website: http://www.litespeedtech.com/ and it times out :rolleyes:

Lol, I cant say that I've used litespeed, I will give it a try when their site gets back up. :-\

Their online store is still online & working fine.

Yea, their whole sites back up again. Prob just a reboot or something :-/ lol

Tried lsws now, to maybe give better performce than apache2 does.
I linked to up to the apache2 config, and it did work out of the box for a little while.
But when traffic started to get higher, the trouble started for me.
Its hopefully some config thats needed, but i need to test it more before putting it out in production, good its easy to swap back :)

Hey Now!

I have to give my 0.02! LiteSpeed Rocks! We use it on our shared servers and recommend it to all vps and dedicated clients as well.

We have been using it sooo much that we finally partnered with them and they are great to work with.

I've decided to give Litespeed a go on my dedicated server. It should work well with my vBulletin forums.

WHT this forum uses Litespeed, doesn't it?

used to, but not anymore i believe

It looks like apache right now (from HTTP header response).

WHT used Litespeed for a while, but then switched back to Apache.

We have server with WHM. So, cPanel team maybe is working on it. Seem good option to implement in servers.

Benchmark Comparison on Serving Small Static Files: LiteSpeed vs Apache vs Nginx

http://blog.litespeedtech.com/2009/1...ache-vs-nginx/

Thanks a lot for this review, I'm finding out a lot about litespeed on here and I think I might make the switch if it will prove to be a legitimate performance advantage over Apache.

It seems like its a lot better for serving static files overall.

HI,

All our servers use LiteSpeed and we absolutely love it.:)
