    I’m currently hosted on a Litespeed server and am using LiteSpeed Cache. But I’m always on the lookout for the best solution. Have you done any benchmarks to see how your plugin stacks up against a caching plugin designed for the server it’s running on?

    Hello there @rdkcreative,

    hope you’re doing well and thanks for reaching us! ??

    Here’s a comparison article when Page Caching was introduced to the HummingBird plugin: https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/hummingbird-gets-full-caching/

    There’s no official benchmark or comparison with a Litespeed stack, but it should behave quite fast too. Giving it a try can always be the ultimate test. You may think to build a staging environment first and try it out over there first.

    Hopefully, other members using the same stack can also comment here.

    Warm regards,
    Dimitris

    Hey there @wpmudev-support6, so I did a comparison and if I’m looking at it correctly HummingBird gave me better caching results than LS Cache. The first column was with LS Cache, the second with just HummingBird, and the third column is with Smush added. To be fair, I didn’t have image optimization on with LiteSpeed so using Smush was just extra.

    I noticed in the results that with HummingBird I’m getting C score for Leverage browser caching even though browser caching is enabled. And I’m getting a D score for Specify a cache validator.

    Do you have any suggestions on how I might be better able to address those issues? And if you see anything else that stands out please don’t hesitate to let me know.

    Thanks.

    @rdkcreative,

    The drop in score for both the “Leverage browser caching” and “Specify a cache validator” is due to an extra asset: https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/fbevents.js. Unfortunately, there’s not much you can do with external assets in terms of specifying a cache validator.

    Best regards,
    Anton
