If you have an HTML site, it probably uses a small amount of system resources simply because it's static, but that isn't the situation with dynamic database-driven sites that use PHP scripts and offer you way more features. Such sites generate load on the website hosting server anytime somebody browses them, simply because the hosting server needs time to execute the script, to access the database and then to supply the content requested by the visitor's web browser. A popular discussion board, for instance, stores all usernames and posts inside a database, so some load is created each time a thread is opened or an end user searches for a particular term. If a lot of people connect to the forum concurrently, or if each search involves checking tens of thousands of database entries, this may generate high load and affect the performance of the site. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load data can present you with information about the site’s efficiency, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic stats to determine if the website has to be optimized or moved to a different type of website hosting platform that will be able to bear the high system load in the event that the Internet site is extremely popular.
