We are happy to announce that we have installed an Apache module (mod_lsapi) in our cPanel shared hosting servers which offers an increased performance, low memory footprint coupled with more security for PHP.
This is enabled in the throughout PHP versions selected through the PHP selector as well for the default (native) PHP.
How it works?
mod_lsapi is a part of Apache;
Apache passes handling for PHP request to mod_lsapi;
mod_lsapi uses liblsapi to transfers request lsphp daemon;
lsphp processes request and return data to mod_lsapi;
Each user has lsphp processes in separate CageFS/LVE;
If there is no requests for lsapi_backend_pgrp_max_idle seconds, lsphp process is terminated;
If no lsphp processes available when new request comes, new lsphp process is created;
lsphp can process lsapi_backend_children requests simultaneously.
