If you have an HTML Internet site, it likely uses a very small amount of system resources simply because it is static, but that isn't the situation with dynamic database-driven sites that use PHP scripts and offer a lot more functions. This type of websites generate load on the web hosting server each and every time someone browses them, due to the fact that the web server requires time to execute the script, to access the database and then to provide the data requested by the visitor's Internet browser. A well-known discussion board, as an illustration, stores all usernames and posts in a database, so some load is produced every single time a thread is opened or a user searches for a particular word. If lots of people access the forum at the same time, or if each search involves checking a large number of database entries, this may create high load and affect the performance of the Internet site. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load stats can provide you with information about the site’s efficiency, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic stats and see if the site needs to be optimized or transferred to another sort of hosting platform which will be able to bear the high system load if the Internet site is very popular.
