If you have an HTML website, most likely it uses a really small amount of system resources as it's static, but this is not the situation with dynamic database-driven sites that use PHP scripts and provide far more functions. This kind of Internet sites produce load on the website hosting server anytime somebody browses them, since the server requires time to execute the script, to access the database and then to provide the info requested by the visitor's web browser. A famous discussion board, for instance, stores all usernames and posts within a database, so some load is produced each time a thread is opened or an end user looks for a certain name. If lots of people access the forum all at once, or if each search involves checking tens of thousands of database entries, this can generate high load and affect the efficiency of the website. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load stats can provide you with information about the site’s functionality, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic statistics to determine if the Internet site must be optimized or migrated to a new sort of web hosting platform that will be able to bear the high system load in case the Internet site is really popular.
