If you have an HTML site, most likely it uses a small amount of system resources because it is static, but that isn't the case with dynamic database-driven Internet sites that use PHP scripts and offer much more capabilities. Such Internet sites generate load on the web hosting server every time someone browses them, as the web server requires time to execute the script, to access the database and then to supply the information requested by the visitor's web browser. A well known discussion board, for example, stores all usernames and posts within a database, so some load is created any time a thread is opened or an end user looks for a specific phrase. If many people access the forum simultaneously, or if each and every search involves checking a large number of database entries, this could create high load and affect the overall performance of the site. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load stats can provide info about the site’s performance, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic data to determine if the site should be optimized or transferred to another sort of hosting platform that'll be able to bear the high system load in case the site is very popular.
