The CPU load is dependent upon the time period a hosting server spends executing a script each time a visitor opens a page on a specific script-driven site. Static HTML websites use hardly any CPU time, but it is not the situation with the far more advanced and functional scripts, that use a database and display dynamic content. The more customers open this sort of an Internet site, the more load shall be created on the server and if the database is big, the MySQL server shall be loaded also. An illustration of what may cause high load is a web-based store with thousands of products. If it is popular, plenty of people shall be browsing it at the same time and if they search for items, the whole database which contains all of the products shall 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 site is doing, if it has to be optimized or if you simply just need a more efficient website hosting solution - if the Internet site is very popular and the existing setup cannot handle the load.
MySQL & Load Stats in Cloud Website Hosting
Using the Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with all of our cloud website hosting offers, you will be able to see rather comprehensive statistics concerning the resources which your Internet sites use. One of the sections will give you details about the CPU load, like how much processing time the web server spent, the length of time it took for your scripts to be executed and the amount of memory they used. Stats are consistently generated every 6 hours and you may also see the different types of processes that generated the most load - PHP, Perl, and so on. MySQL load data are listed inside a separate section where you could see all the queries on an hourly, day-to-day, etcetera. basis. You can go back and compare data from various months to find out whether some update has altered the resource usage if the number of website visitors hasn't changed much. That way, you will see if your site needs to be optimized, that will give you a better general performance and an improved user experience.
MySQL & Load Stats in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you want to see thorough statistics about the load generated by your sites, it won't take more than several mouse clicks to do this. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with all semi-dedicated servers which we offer, has a section focused on the system resource usage and the data there shall tell you if your Internet sites operate properly and if the load they produce corresponds to the amount of received website visitors. The CPU load stats include the script execution time and the length of time it took for the hosting server to process the requests, and what kinds of processes created the load. The MySQL data shall show you how frequently every database was accessed, and day-to-day and per hour data for the whole account. With both kinds of stats, you are able to check the numbers for any of the past days and months, so you could see how the sites perform as the traffic to them rises or once you've applied some update.
