If you have an HTML site, it probably uses a very small amount of resources because it is static, but this isn't so with dynamic database-driven Internet sites that use PHP scripts and provide you with much more functions. This type of websites create load on the web hosting server each and every time anyone browses them, simply because the web server requires time to execute the script, to access the database and then to supply the data requested by the visitor's web browser. A well known discussion board, as an illustration, stores all usernames and posts within a database, so some load is created each time a thread is opened or an end user looks for a given 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 efficiency of the website. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load data can give you data about the site’s overall performance, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic statistics to decide if the site must be optimized or migrated to another type of hosting platform which will be able to bear the high system load if the website is extremely popular.
MySQL & Load Stats in Shared Hosting

Each type of information is listed in its own section. The CPU Load section shall tell you which processes generated the load and how much time it took for the hosting server to execute every one of the requests. Although statistics are generated every six hours, you can see day by day and month-to-month stats too. In the MySQL Load section you shall find a list of all the databases generated within your semi-dedicated account manually and automatically, the amount of queries were sent to each of them, the total everyday queries for the account in general, plus the average per hour rate. This info shall help you determine how well your Internet sites perform and if each of them requires optimization of some type.
