The CPU load depends upon the time a server spends executing a script when a visitor opens a webpage on a given script-driven site. Static HTML sites use barely any CPU time, but this is not the case with the far more complex and functional scripts, which use a database and display dynamic content. The more people open this type of a website, the more load will be produced on the server and if the database is very large, the MySQL server shall be loaded also. An example of what could cause high load is an Internet store with thousands of products. If it's popular, many people will be browsing it at the same time and if they look 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 statistics will give you an idea of how the website is doing, if it needs to be optimized or if you just need a more effective web hosting solution - if the site is popular and the current setup can't deal with the load.

MySQL & Load Stats in Hosting

If you host your websites in a hosting account with our company, you shall have access to detailed CPU and MySQL stats that will enable you to monitor their functionality. You can easily see the stats with a number of clicks in your Hepsia CP. The CPU Load section can tell you the total time the web server spent on your scripts and what amount of memory was required, along with the time it took for the scripts to be executed. The everyday view is the default one, but you may also see the numbers from the previous months. The MySQL Load section give you more details about the number of queries to every database that you have created in the account. Once again, you can easily see per month, daily and per hour statistics, which will give you data that is different from the traffic or the number of visitors you get. This way, you can determine if the websites need some optimization.

MySQL & Load Stats in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you would like to see in depth stats with regards to the load produced by your sites, it will not take more than a few mouse clicks to do this. The Hepsia hosting CP, provided with all semi-dedicated servers we offer, features a section devoted to the system resource usage and the data there will tell you if your websites function properly and if the load they generate corresponds to the amount of received website visitors. The CPU load data include the script execution time and the amount of time it took for the machine to process the requests, plus what types of processes created the load. The MySQL statistics will show you how frequently every database was accessed, and also day-to-day and hourly data for the entire account. With both forms of statistics, you'll be able to check the numbers for every one of the past days and months, so you can easily see how sites perform as the traffic to them increases or after you have applied some update.
