We have recently conducted a series of benchmarks comparing myVesta and cPanel + LiteSpeed as hosting panels for WordPress websites, using several popular themes (Astra, Elementor, Avada, Divi, WPBakery/Woodmart).

The tests included:
  • Time To First Byte (TTFB) measured from multiple global locations
  • Frontend performance (First Contentful Paint, Speed Index)
  • Load testing using k6.io (number of successful requests under stress)
All tests were performed on the same hardware and network, with default or typical configurations for both panels.

Key findings:
  • TTFB and frontend performance metrics were consistently lower (faster) on myVesta across all themes and locations.
  • During load testing, myVesta handled more successful requests per second than cPanel + LiteSpeed.
  • Results for both panels remained stable regardless of the WordPress theme's complexity.
Full methodology, raw data, and Jupyter Notebooks with charts are available in our GitHub repository - https://github.com/isscbta/myvesta-vs-cpanel-benchmark

Hope this data is useful for anyone comparing WordPress hosting options!
