One issue with Litespeed is it's closed source. A key piece of your IT infrastructure, completely dependent on a small company? This situation created some interesting problems in the past. Not to mention the licensing costs ($1400 per box).
It's not a show-stopper, but is there an open-source alternative that actually works? Re page caching: yes, absolutely, page caching rocks, but it's not always possible, and even when it is possible, it is not always implemented. Re bad reputation of lighty + FastCGI combo: most open source software is written out of frustration (either with existing solutions, or with your day job, and usually both). As far as I know, both Mongrel and mod_fcgid were written out of frustration with mod_fastcgi.
