The CPU load is dependent upon the time period a hosting server spends executing a script any time a visitor opens a page on a specific script-driven site. Static HTML websites use barely any CPU time, but it is not so with the much more complex and functional scripts, which use a database and display dynamic content. The more individuals open this type of a website, the more load shall be produced on the web server and if the database is big, the MySQL server will be loaded too. An illustration of what could cause high load is an Internet store with thousands of products. If it's popular, plenty of people shall be visiting it at the same time and if they seek out items, the entire database that contains all of the products will also be constantly accessed by the script, resulting in high load. In this light, having CPU and MySQL load statistics will provide you with an idea of how the website is doing, if it has to be optimized or if you simply need a more powerful website hosting solution - if the Internet site is popular and the existing setup can't cope with the load.
