If you have an HTML website, most likely it uses a small amount of resources because it's static, but this isn't the case with dynamic database-driven sites that use PHP scripts and provide you with far more capabilities. This sort of websites create load on the web hosting server each and every time somebody browses them, since the hosting server needs time to execute the script, to access the database and then to deliver the content requested by the visitor's Internet browser. A well known discussion board, for example, stores all usernames and posts inside a database, so some load is created every time a thread is opened or a user searches for a specific name. If many people access the forum at the same time, or if each search involves checking thousands of database entries, this could create high load and affect the functionality of the site. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load stats can present you with information about the site’s performance, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic data to decide if the site has to be optimized or transferred to a different kind of web hosting platform that will be able to bear the high system load in the event that the site is very popular.

MySQL & Load Stats in Semi-dedicated Servers
Because our system keeps in depth stats for the load which every semi-dedicated server account generates, you will be aware of how your sites perform at any time. When you log in to the Hepsia CP, provided with every single account, you can go to the section committed to the system load. There, you can easily see the processing time our system spent on your scripts, the length of time it took for the scripts to be actually executed and what types of processes produced the load - cron jobs, PHP pages, Perl scripts, etc. You could also see the total number of queries to each database within your semi-dedicated account, the total everyday figures for the account in general, plus the average hourly rate. With both the CPU and the MySQL load statistics, you may always go back to past days or months and compare the overall performance of your websites after some update or after a major rise in the number of your site visitors.
