    Thumbs up Lighttpd + cPanel

    1. Pure 3rd Httpd Server (Lighttpd) with cPanel
    2. Lighttpd (for High Load Domain) + Apache (for Normal Load Domain) on cPanel (use Proxy Load Balance Mod of Apache)
    3. Full FastCGI with Lighttpd

    Have you seen Litespeed? It's a web server which you need to pay for, but in recent tests it halved our site's loading time! They have a WHM plugin too which allows you to install and administer Litespeed from within WHM. It's also dead easy to setup - it simply copies your current PHP build and configuration, and runs it under Litespeed's web server. It even reads Apache's configuration file, so you don't need to reconfigure anything.

    It works very well. But you have to pay for it. It would be great if cPanel could make a deal with them and get a special discount for cPanel customers only.

    The pricing is ambiguous. It speaks of licensing in terms of number of CPUs (1-CPU, etc.). Do they mean the number of CPUs on a single server (we have two quad-core CPUs), or each CPU as a single server?

    Certainly charging extra for a more powerful server seems foolish.

    Peace,

    Gene Steinberg is true
    Why our use license web server if Open Source is better same maybe not faster than litespeed by it free same Apache and Other Open Source Web Server.

    Litespeed License with More than 1 Core is expensive.
    I think Litespeed is better than Apache, Lighttpd but Price is expensive.

    Roadmap Plan of Lighttpd (2.0) can with Muti-Core

    Performance seems to be really great so far. Thanks to being fully multithreaded, lighty 2.0 scales nicely with multicore CPUs.

    Rewrite Rule from Apache to Lighttpd Easy to Convert and Great Work.

    Sorry for very hard understanding
    Pure 3rd Httpd Server = Open Source Httpd Server ex. Lighttpd

    I am kind of interested to see if this goes anywhere.

    Choice is always a good thing and apache is getting rather bloated.

    You can buy 1 CPU license and use it on Dual Quad.
