Find out max CPU of application

Cheetah Designs · 3 Feb 2014 at 22:24

I have an application that I wish to find out what the peak CPU usage is over a set period of time. Ie what is the highest amount of CPU it had used in that period.

Even better would be a graph of CPU vs time. The time will be about 1.5 hours roughly.

How can I do this?

Just trying to figure out what I want with perfmon. I can get a graph of my application, set it to 1000s but I don't really know how to read the graph.

It would appear the processor % time is above 100% which doesn't really make sense to me?

Does this show what you want?

Processor time in excess of 100% is quite normal on a machine with multiple cores.

Right so do I divide it by the number of cores?
