The CPU load depends upon the time a web server spends executing a script when a visitor opens a page on a given script-driven Internet site. Static HTML Internet sites use hardly any CPU time, but this is not the case with the considerably more advanced and functional scripts, which use a database and display dynamic content. The more people open this sort of a site, the more load will be generated on the server and if the database is very large, the MySQL server shall be loaded too. A good example of what can cause high load is an Internet store with thousands of products. If it's popular, plenty of people will be exploring it concurrently and if they seek out items, the whole database which contains all the products will also be continuously accessed by the script, resulting in high load. In this light, having CPU and MySQL load data will provide you with an idea of how the Internet site is doing, if it has to be optimized or if you simply just need a more potent website hosting solution - if the website is very popular and the established setup can't deal with the load.

MySQL & Load Stats in Shared Hosting

The CPU load stats feature the CPU time and the actual execution time of your scripts, plus the amount of system memory they used. You can also see what processes created the load - PHP or Perl scripts, cron jobs, etcetera. The MySQL load stats section will show you the total amount queries to each particular database you have created within your shared hosting account, the total queries for the account overall and the standard hourly rate.
