Is it possible to use HestiaCP with Open LiteSpeed?

Community Support Web

Hello all!

I did many tests with the same web page, different control panels. Hestia CP is my favorite, there are no rivals.

But I have seen that my website, responds much better (but much better), with Open Lite Speed + LS Caché server.

Right now I use Nginx - PFP / (Apache), the default configuration of Hestia CP.

I want to use Hestia CP with Open Lite Speed, but my knowledge about this is very limited.

Is it possible?

Is there any tutorial?

Can I rely on ChatGPT instructions?

Thanks

we don’t have any suppory for it. Nginx +PHPFPM is faster then with apache

Yes, I understand that there is no support. I would just like to know if anyone has tried this before.

I use Nginx + PHPFPM, but I can’t find any caching plugin for WP that works better than LS Caché, and for that I need Open Lite Speed…

I’ll try on a test server and leave results here, in case someone else has the same doubt as me.

“tried this before” woudl mean, that hestia supports open lite speed - but it probaly never will.

For additional caching → Hestia Nginx Cache – WordPress plugin | WordPress.org

I recommend use Nginx + PHPFPM. Then use Redis as socket, optimize Cloudflare cache, speed etc…
Install the plugin warmup cache, install plugin Performance by WP team, Autoptimize plugin

Then your site will load fast like as litespeed.

Try Aapanel there is LiteSpeed

I did a lot of tests of Hestia CP vs OpenLitespeed on the same vps location with the same sites. Hestia is simply faster. I would even like OpenLitespeed because with Hestia I have a problem with AWS Cloud Front (Hestia just doesn’t work in my opinion). But the truth is that Hestia CP is faster. I use WP Rocket with Hestia and Caching proxy template in domain options.

I’m trying different optimizations, caching plugins, optimization plugins… but I can’t find the same results. The litespeed cache plugin, even without having open litespeed installed (the cache doesn’t work by itself), gives better results… it’s a bit absurd and I really don’t understand what’s going on.

Yes, I think that HestiaCp is the best panel (in my opinion), not only because of the speed it provides, but also because of how easy it is to configure and all the options it offers, in a simple and functional way. This is the panel I am using.

But I would like to make my WP have better metrics and I think it’s more a problem of configuration and load of my WP theme than of the server. I finally left Nginx so I forget about Open Litespeed, but I want to improve those results.

In my tests, wp rocket did a little better even on openliteserver than their plugin. Try it if you can, but I’m sure that hestia always wins especially in the initial response. Always 20% faster. I tested on several different sites. Really the biggest problem remains the theme of the site. If it is not well made you will never be able to achieve a perfect result.

Hello VipVip,

Im use Avada Theme for WordPress, and WP Rocket now, But I don’t get the expected results, can you tell me what was your optimal configuration?

I also have my images in webp and avif, but they are still a loading problem.

im use Hestia Nginx Cache plugin with Caching template in domain option in hestia.

Option in WP Rocket may be different for your site, test it, but it is very simple, activate. Minimum activate Minify CSS files and JavaScript files.

Check for heavy Elementor code.

I get slower results wit cloudflare.

What I noticed is that the theme is the basis for everything. I am about to build about 10 sites and I have selected different themes that are among the most famous, then maybe I will have more clarity. I will also make a site with Avada. I will share my experience with you after I build it. I’m not a professional, keep that in mind.
