> I want to write a python script that monitors a process CPU and

> module. However, I have noticed that in this module the function
> GetPerformanceAttributes always returns zero for the counter "%
> Processor Time" even when I know a process is using a large
> amount of CPU (as seen from the windows task manager). This is
> also the same for the counters "% User Time" and "% Privileged
> Time" and is easily demonstrated when running ShowAllProcesses,
> which gives zero for all these three counters and for all running
> processes.
>
> Has anyone noticed this before, or can help me as to how I can
> retrieve the CPU usage of a process?
