Wow. That sounds great. I'm definitely going to be checking this out more.
Sounds to me like an ideal VPS setup - get fast RoR and still keep your cPanel.

George, do you have any links to info about getting wordpress running with litespeed? I can't seem to post on your forums right now due to mail server being down. I would like to move completely off of apache which was serving one of the wordpress blogs till recently.

Thanks,

I believe you're absolutely right. :) After reading your post, it took
me about 30 minutes to get this whole thing installed and my rForum
install running on litespeed and all I did was just followed the wiki
link that was posted.
I am truly impressed. Now only if I could get that dang plugin to stop
raping my rForum's name-space I'd be a happy camper. Alas, not all
things are meant to deliver on their promises (unlike litespeed I
suppose)
Finally.. something which actually works as advertised! WHAT A CONCEPT!
kudos!

Amr,

Thank you for your praise.

Once you get familiar with LiteSpeed and have the infrastructure ready, deploying a new Rails application should take about one minute, we believe. :slight_smile:

Have fun!

Hi,

Does anyone know if the "upload with progress bar" feature works with Litespeed and LSAPI without having to patch anything?

Thanks, Serge

Serge,

Unfortunately, LiteSpeed buffer the whole request before forwarding it to backend Rails dispatcher, so "upload progress bar" does not work with LiteSpeed. On the other hand, I think one upload session will tie up one valuable Rails dispatcher, if the upload takes long time, it will became a serious scalability issue. Number of users can be served is limited by number of backend Rails dispatchers.

Best Regards, George Wang
