Prestashop Performance Benchmarks

Most of the time, a PrestaShop full page cache plugin will cost you somewhere around $120 to $180 USD, but LiteSpeed's cache extension is FREE to PrestaShop owners on LiteSpeed-powered hosting. To demonstrate what page caching gets you, we put our LSCache extension to the test on a PrestaShop demo site, against uncached Apache and nginx.
