The CPU load depends on the time a hosting server spends executing a script any time a visitor opens a page on a certain script-driven website. Static HTML websites use barely any CPU time, but it is not the case with the much more advanced and functional scripts, that use a database and display dynamic content. The more clients open this sort of a site, the more load shall be created on the web server and if the database is big, the MySQL server will be loaded too. An example of what can cause high load is an Internet store with a large number of products. If it's popular, many people shall be exploring it simultaneously and if they look for items, the entire database containing all of the products will also be continuously accessed by the script, which will result in high load. In this light, having CPU and MySQL load stats can provide an idea of how the website is doing, if it needs to be optimized or if you simply just need a more effective website hosting solution - if the website is really popular and the existing setup can't deal with the load.
