Have anyone here used OpenLiteSpeed?
If so, what do you think about it?

+1, especially how does it compare to PHP FPM?

Yes. I use LiteSpeed WS and LiteSpeed Web ADC in production. mod_lsapi is nice combined with alt-php or passenger (when using php or python - haven’t used it with ruby), but if you’re on a non-CP box without cgroups, just use apache + event MPM or nginx and PHP-FPM and performance will be more or less the same. You’ll just miss a nice interface but if you have snmp or something you won’t miss too much.

Is the performance really the same?

I have always used apache event and PHP-FPM, but according to this site: https://http2benchmark.org/

LiteSpeed is waaay faster than everyone.

I am wondering if it is worth the switch from Apache Event with PHP-FPM to OpenLiteSpeed with lsphp?

@Linux not in my experience. It really depends on the hardware. You can squeeze much more out of older hardware with LSWS, but I keep my hardware up to date and have not seen significant lower resource usage or performance improvements. I also use apache event mpm + mod_lsapi (only possible with cloudlinux) at scale in production. It does not perform better than PHP-FPM (I do give each user their own FPM master process).

@xalys

Ah you do apache + php the same as me then.

I was thinking about moving Nextcloud to OpenLiteSpeed, and gain some performance
