I have a dedicated server but my site is very busy so i still have to watch what's going on behind the scenes Also I assume this doesn't use any db resources once it's loaded? This hack could possibly help to release some stress from my off-topic forum which most users seems to use as a chat substitute.

Nope, shouldn't use much, if any of your sever resources, as the java applets are loaded from the world irc webserver and users are connected through their server. Before you ask, yes I asked permission to use their applets in this hack.. See http://www.worldirc.org/chatself.php for more info on world irc..
