cPanel Charging $9 more for Litespeed?

[gotroot]

When i go to deploy Litespeed from WHM im taken to an invoice that suggests that i should pay a prorated amt of $45 for lightspeed. There is no other information about which version they are trying to sell me. Is it the 1 worker unlimited domains / users / cores? When i go to lightspeed they offer me a 15 days trial + the same plan is $36.00.

You would think that buying Lightspeed though cPanel had a discount or something attached too it but there is none!

How about offering us a discount or trial? I mean come on you guys.

I believe the version of LiteSpeed offered inside cPanel is based on the specifications of your server.

As far as I know, the Unlimited pack they sell is with 2 workers - so that would be identical to the monthly price at litespeedtech.com, but of course now I cannot find the details
Else you may want to mail [email protected] for any pricing questions

And you really (really) don't want to match your LSWS license to the number of CPU's. As an example (to keep it simple) if you have a 4 CPU/core box, you prob. want a 2 CPU LSWS license. That lets LSWS use (at most) 2 CPU's using 2 CPU's for PHP/MySQL etc. You need to 'logically' leave some CPU available for MySQL/PHP etc.

We offer two separate Litespeed Licenses:

The 8GB Litespeed license

• RAM Limit: 8GB
• Worker Processes: 1
• Cache: LSCache Standard
• Unlimited Domains

The 8GB license can run on a dedicated server, so long as it has no more than 8GB of memory



The Dedicated Litespeed License:

• RAM Limit: Unlimited
• Worker Processes: 3
• Cache: LSCache Standard
• Domains: Unlimited

This is a 3-worker license which is cheaper at $46.00 than the 2-worker license offered by LiteSpeed

The Dedicated LiteSpeed license is recommended for dedicated servers with up to 16 cores

3-worker makes it worth it. Because 1 worker looks less. You said its good for servers with up to 16 cores. How about servers with higher cores? What are the options out there?

These are the licenses we offer. LiteSpeed has their own offering which, if you have more than 16 cores would be more suitable, here: Choosing A License - LiteSpeed Technologies
