1. **[OpenLiteSpeed](https://openlitespeed.org/)**: It has very fast response times, and that’s undeniable. It has been praised extensively, to the point where I prioritized trying it. However, when I switched to Nginx, I realized those praises didn’t necessarily translate into better overall performance. You can achieve a faster Nginx setup than OLS with proper tuning.

2. **[Centminmod](https://centminmod.com/)**: Often cited as the fastest LEMP management system—and that’s true. It consistently ranks at the top in performance benchmarks. Developed by a single passionate individual, Daniel Lu, Centminmod focuses intensely on performance and security.

2. **[Centminmod](https://centminmod.com/)**: Often cited as the fastest LEMP management system—and that’s true. It consistently ranks at the top in performance benchmarks. Developed by a single passionate individual, George Liu, Centminmod focuses intensely on performance and security. However, this extreme optimization makes it complex. It auto-configures the server, builds customized software, and fine-tunes everything to the limit. This results in a system that is difficult to configure, troubleshoot, and maintain. Although Lu provides free support, it’s not enough to offset the challenges. I eventually gave up on Centminmod because my website had errors, wasn't as fast as expected, and I had no clear path to fixing it.

3. **[WordOps](https://wordops.net/)**: I tried WordOps because I was comfortable with a traditional LEMP setup and hesitant about Docker’s complexity. WordOps is easy to use and efficient—very similar to EasyEngine v3. However, I encountered caching issues, which I expected to "just work" but didn't. Even after multiple attempts, I couldn’t fix it. I also found syntax errors in the pre-configured Nginx settings, which reduced my confidence in the system. This made me understand why EasyEngine abandoned the v3 model and rebuilt everything from scratch with Docker.

4. **[SlickStack](https://slickstack.io/)**: I didn’t spend much time on this one. It’s designed for a narrow use case—requiring Cloudflare, supporting only one website per server, and pre-installing many optimization plugins.

These limitations, along with concerns about plugin maintenance and deep system optimizations, made me uncertain about its approach. Plus, when I compared performance scores with EasyEngine, SlickStack didn’t hold up. Although they have a unique philosophy, I quickly moved on.

5. **EasyEngine** 4: In terms of performance, it is one of the few solutions that can compete with Centminmod. While Centminmod generally performs better, the difference isn't drastic. Given Centminmod’s operational difficulties, I chose EasyEngine.
