The story

What Happened

Affiliate network Fans2Cash ran its application and content site on a single underpowered cPanel server, peaking at about 10 Mbit — well below real demand.

Their host, Green Olive Tree, moved them to LiteSpeed and traffic rose 50% straight away. As they grew to five application servers, each routinely handled 30 Mbit peaks (150 Mbit total) and occasionally 90 Mbit, without slowing down.

Server environment: 5 application servers, each 2× Xeon E5-2620 (12 cores), 32 GB RAM.
