If you have an HTML website, it probably uses a small amount of resources because it's static, but this isn't the situation with dynamic database-driven websites that use PHP scripts and offer you far more features. This sort of sites generate load on the hosting server each and every time somebody browses them, 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 Internet browser. A popular discussion board, as an illustration, stores all usernames and posts within a database, so some load is produced any time a thread is opened or a user looks for a given name. If a lot of people access the forum simultaneously, or if every search involves checking hundreds of thousands of database entries, this could produce high load and affect the overall performance of the Internet site. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load statistics can give you information about the site’s performance, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic data to determine if the site has to be optimized or transferred to another kind of web hosting platform that'll be able to bear the high system load if the Internet site is very popular.
