CI3: Apache vs Lightspeed Server

Apache can be slow, definitely. Especially compared with some other servers. I don't have personal experience with Lightspeed, but NGINX has a dramatic increase, and IIRC Lightspeed has performance as one of their primary goals, so I'm sure you would there, also. I do think, though, that Apache has most of them beat out in terms of raw features.

In general, you will see faster page load times, which equates to more people being able to be served at the same time, allowing you to get more out of the same hardware, at least as far as serving the web pages themselves go. For many apps, though, the database is the bottleneck, and the choice of server doesn't really impact that.
