I stopped reading this thread a few days back (when it went off the
rails) but the code does the following every 5 seconds to determine CPU
usage:
GetProcessTimes (handle, &creationTime, &exitTime,
&kernelTime,
&totalTime);
GetSystemTimeAsFileTime(&nowTime);
m_fCPUPercent =
(totalTime-lastTotalTime)/(nowTime-lastNow);
lastNow = nowTime;
lastTotalTime = totalTime;
So we ask windows how much time did you give me and how long have I been
running, and we take those away from the last sample. In a HT or SMP
configurations this could result in each process consuming 100% cpu
(100% execution time on one CPU).
