PHP Is LSAPI (Litespeed) faster than PHP-FPM (Nginx, etc) or not?

Thanks for sharing. Litespeed/OpenLitespeed integration in Centmin Mod is still on the books But priority would be getting CentOS 8/AlmaLinux/Rocky Linux compatibility first

Yes biggest plus is .htaccess native support

Nice to have but remember it's a double edge sword having a web accessible GUI admin. It's a vector for attacks and compromise. FYI, OpenLitespeed had an admin GUI privilege escalation security bug recently Openlitespeed Web Server 1.7.8 - Privilege Escalation Security Issue · Issue #217 · litespeedtech/openlitespeed.

But it's been fixed in next OpenLiteSpeed version 1.7.9

Litespeed is faster than Openlitespeed and yes both are on integration plans for Centmin Mod long term wise.
