The CPU load is dependent upon the amount of time a hosting server spends executing a script each time a visitor opens a webpage on a given script-driven website. Static HTML sites use hardly any CPU time, but this is not the case with the far more sophisticated and functional scripts, that use a database and display dynamic content. The more individuals open this type of an Internet site, the more load shall be generated on the server and if the database is very large, the MySQL server shall be loaded too. An illustration of what could cause high load is an online store with thousands of products. If it is popular, a lot of people shall be browsing it at the same time and if they search for items, the entire database containing all the products will also be constantly accessed by the script, which will result in high load. In this light, having CPU and MySQL load data can provide an idea of how the website is doing, if it needs to be optimized or if you just need a more potent web hosting solution - if the website is extremely popular and the existing setup cannot cope with the load.
