If you have an HTML site, it likely uses a really small amount of system resources as it's static, but that isn't the situation with dynamic database-driven sites that use PHP scripts and offer way more functions. Such Internet sites generate load on the website hosting server each time anyone browses them, simply because the server needs time to execute the script, to access the database and then to provide the info requested by the visitor's Internet browser. A widely used discussion board, for instance, stores all usernames and posts in a database, so some load is generated any time a thread is opened or an end user searches for a given phrase. If many people connect to the forum all at once, or if each search involves checking a large number of database entries, this could generate high load and affect the efficiency of the site. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load statistics can present you with data about the site’s functionality, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic stats to determine if the website has to be optimized or transferred to a new kind of web hosting platform that will be able to bear the high system load if the site is very popular.
