If you have an HTML Internet site, it likely uses a really small amount of resources because it is static, but this is not the situation with dynamic database-driven sites that use PHP scripts and provide you with a lot more capabilities. This kind of Internet sites create load on the website hosting server every time someone browses them, because the web server requires time to execute the script, to access the database and then to supply the information requested by the visitor's browser. A famous discussion board, for example, stores all usernames and posts within a database, so some load is produced any time a thread is opened or an end user looks for a certain term. If lots of people connect to the forum simultaneously, or if each and every search involves checking thousands of database entries, this can generate high load and affect the overall performance of the site. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load stats can give you data about the site’s overall performance, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic stats and see if the website has to be optimized or transferred to a new type of hosting platform that will be able to bear the high system load if the Internet site is extremely popular.
