If you have an HTML Internet site, in all probability it uses a really small amount of resources because it's static, but this is not the situation with dynamic database-driven websites that use PHP scripts and offer far more functions. This type of websites produce load on the hosting server each time somebody browses them, simply because the web server requires time to execute the script, to access the database and then to deliver the content requested by the visitor's browser. A well known discussion board, for instance, stores all usernames and posts inside a database, so some load is generated every time a thread is opened or a user searches for a certain phrase. If many people access the forum concurrently, or if each and every search involves checking a large number of database entries, this may create high load and affect the overall performance of the Internet site. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load statistics can present you with info about the site’s performance, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic data and see if the Internet site should be optimized or transferred to another type of web hosting platform which will be able to bear the high system load if the Internet site is popular.
