The CPU load depends upon the time period a server spends executing a script any time a visitor opens a page on a given script-driven Internet site. Static HTML sites use barely any CPU time, but this isn't so with the significantly more complex and functional scripts, that use a database and display dynamic content. The more clients open this kind of an Internet site, the more load shall be produced on the web server and if the database is very large, the MySQL server shall be loaded too. An example of what could cause high load is a web-based store with a huge number of products. If it's popular, many people shall be browsing it simultaneously and if they seek out items, the whole database which contains all the products shall also be constantly accessed by the script, which will result in high load. In this light, having CPU and MySQL load stats will offer you an idea of how the site is doing, if it has to be optimized or if you just need a more powerful web hosting solution - if the site is really popular and the established setup cannot handle the load.

MySQL & Load Stats in Shared Hosting

Using the Hepsia CP, included with all our shared hosting plans, you'll be able to see incredibly comprehensive statistics concerning the system resources that your websites use. One of the sections will give you details about the CPU load, like the amount of processing time the server spent, the amount of time it took for your scripts to be executed and the amount of memory they used. Stats are consistently created every 6 hours and you may also see the different types of processes that generated the most load - PHP, Perl, etc. MySQL load statistics are listed inside a different section in which you can see all the queries on a per hour, daily, etcetera. basis. You could go back and compare stats from different months to find out if some update has altered the resource usage if the total amount of visitors hasn't changed much. In this way, you can determine if your website needs to be optimized, that'll lead to a better general performance and an improved user experience.

MySQL & Load Stats in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you have a semi-dedicated server account with our company, you'll be able to access very detailed CPU and MySQL load stats that'll give you more info about the overall performance of your Internet sites. Two sections of the Hepsia CP are devoted to the stats, one for each type. Within the CPU Load section you can see the execution time of your scripts and the amount of time the hosting server processed them. Additionally you can see the kinds of processes which were executed. Stats are generated every 6 hours, but if necessary, you can also check data for previous days or months. The MySQL Load section shall show you the whole number of database queries per day and per hour, along with the queries to each individual database that you have inside your semi-dedicated account. Comparing this info to your traffic statistics shall give you valuable info about how your Internet sites perform and you will determine if you need to take some measures to improve them.
