OpenCart HTTP/2 Benchmarks

We tested LiteSpeed Web Server and LiteSpeed Cache extension on a demo OpenCart site, and it outperformed other HTTP/2 servers by a dramatic margin: more than 2000 time more requests/second! Given the lack of free OpenCart cache extensions, we were unable to test a cache solution with nginx or Apache.
