Nginx vs. Apache vs. OpenLiteSpeed vs. LiteSpeed Enterprise - What's The Best For WordPress?
I tested the performance and scalability of 4 web servers (nginx, apache, openlitespeed and litespeed enterprise) on a cloud server. I did the following tests:
hosting benchmark
WordPress performance tester
TTFB test
PHP vitals test
Loader.io test with 250, 1000 and 10000 clients over 1 minute
I used these WordPress plugins:
WordPress Hosting Benchmark tool - https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpbench...
WPPerformanceTester - https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpperfo...
PHP Vitals - https://wordpress.org/plugins/php-vit...
I used the Loader.io service for scalability testing.
