If you have an HTML Internet site, it likely uses a very small amount of system resources simply because it is static, but this is not the situation with dynamic database-driven sites that use PHP scripts and offer way more functions. This type of websites produce load on the web hosting server each time somebody browses them, since the server needs time to execute the script, to access the database and then to supply the data requested by the visitor's Internet browser. A widely used discussion board, as an illustration, stores all usernames and posts within a database, so some load is generated every single time a thread is opened or an end user looks for a specific term. If lots of people access the forum all at once, or if every single search involves checking thousands of database entries, this could produce high load and affect the functionality of the site. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load statistics can provide you with info about the site’s performance, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic data to make a decision if the website has to be optimized or moved to a new type of hosting platform which will be able to bear the high system load in case the site is very popular.
