LiteSpeed_LiteMage

Magento Extension
Download latest - 1.3.6

LiteMage Cache is a powerful Magento page caching utility built into LiteSpeed Web Server. It combines superior ESI implementation with easy set up. LiteMage Cache contains a number of optimizations, including combined subrequests, that give it faster, more efficient performance than other page caching utilities. In addition, because it is part of the web server, LiteMage Cache does away with the communication problems and overhead other page caching solutions suffer from. The LiteMage Magento extension then automatically integrates Magento installations with LiteSpeed's top-of-the-line ESI implementation, combining the greatest Magento performance enhancement possible with a painless set up.
