Name of the process with highest cpu usage

Question

I have a Samurize config that shows a CPU usage graph similar to Task manager.

How do I also display the name of the process with the current highest CPU usage per

Answer 1

Thanks for the formula, Jorge. I don't quite understand why you have to divide by the number of cores, but the numbers I get match the Task Manager. Here's my powershell code:

$procID = 4321

$time1 = Get-Date
$cpuTime1 = Get-Process -Id $procID | Select -Property CPU

Start-Sleep -s 2

$time2 = Get-Date
$cpuTime2 = Get-Process -Id $procID | Select -Property CPU

$avgCPUUtil = ($cpuTime2.CPU - $cpuTime1.CPU)/($time2-$time1).TotalSeconds *100 / [System.Environment]::ProcessorCount
