I do some last testing to decide what tech solution to use but got some strange results... I use ab for test and siege, Nginx with microcache set in ISPConfig and Cpanel with ApacheBooster plugin which is Nginx + Varnish + Apache i use a 2 wordpress blogs home pages but they are not so different and in to diffrent benchmarks i got one or other thechnology to be 50 percent faster than the other I.

There must be something wrong with the second test: apache: Data transferred: 29.12 MB nginx: Data transferred: 60.06 MB so the data amount of the nginx test is 2 times the amount of the apache test.
My mistake my BP (business partner) start developing process on wp blog the time of the test and use theme with a big header image i just finish redoing the siege test on an fresh installed Wordpress, I still got some differences in badnwith... think it's about level of compression, but result are the same 162 for apache booster and 102 for Niginx Microcache Code: ** SIEGE 2.72 ** Preparing 15 concurrent users for battle.
