If you have an HTML Internet site, most likely it uses a small amount of resources as it's static, but that isn't so with dynamic database-driven Internet sites that use PHP scripts and offer you way more capabilities. This sort of Internet sites produce load on the website hosting server when anyone browses them, due to the fact that the hosting server needs time to execute the script, to access the database and then to deliver the info requested by the visitor's web browser. A well known discussion board, for instance, stores all usernames and posts within a database, so some load is produced each time a thread is opened or an end user looks for a certain term. If a lot of people access the forum at the same time, or if every search involves checking thousands of database entries, this may produce high load and affect the functionality of the Internet site. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load data can give you information about the site’s overall performance, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic statistics to determine if the Internet site must be optimized or moved to a different type of web hosting platform that will be able to bear the high system load if the site is very popular.
