How does one lists the processes using CPU > 1% by piping the output from Get-Process to Where-Object?



Complete beginner to powershell all i can think is something like this



Get-Process | Where-Object { CPU_Usage -gt 1% }

If you want CPU percentage, you can use Get-Counter to get the performance counter and Get-Counter can be run for all processes. So, to list processes that use greater than say 5% of CPU use:



(Get-Counter 'Process(*)% Processor Time').CounterSamples | Where-Object {$_.CookedValue -gt 5}


This will list the processes that was using >5% of CPU at the instance the sample was taken. Hope this helps!

  • @Rail Sure it will, you just have to change 'Process(*)% Processor Time' to something like 'Process(foo*)% Processor Time'. It will display them as foo, foo#1, foo#2, etc.

There are several points to note here:




  • first, you have to use the $_ variable to refer to the object currently coming from the pipe.

  • second, Powershell does not use % to express percentage -- instead, % represents the modulus operator. So, when ou want percentage, you have to transform your number by yourself by simply multiplying it by 0.01.


  • third, the Get-Process cmdlet does not have a field CPU_Usage; a summary on its output can be found here. About the field CPU is says: "The amount of processor time that the process has used on all processors, in seconds." So be clear on what you can expect from the numbers.



Summarizing the command can be written as



Get-Process | Where-Object { $_.CPU -gt 100 }


This gives you the processes which have used more than 100 seconds of CPU time.



If you want something like a relative statement, you first have to sum up all used times, and later divide the actual times by the total time. You can get the total CPU time e.g. by



Get-Process | Select-Object -expand CPU | Measure-Object -Sum | Select-Object -expand Sum


Try to stack it together with the previous command.

I was looking for a solution to get cpu, mem utilization by process. All solutions I tried where I would get the cpu but those numbers were not matching with taskmanager. So I wrote my own. Following will provide accurate cpu utilization by each process. I tested this on a I7 laptop.



$Cores = (Get-WmiObject -class win32_processor -Property numberOfCores).numberOfCores;
$LogicalProcessors = (Get-WmiObject –class Win32_processor -Property NumberOfLogicalProcessors).NumberOfLogicalProcessors;
$TotalMemory = (get-ciminstance -class "cim_physicalmemory" | % {$_.Capacity})



$DATA=get-process -IncludeUserName | select @{Name="Time"; Expression={(get-date(get-date).ToUniversalTime() -uformat "%s")}},`
ID, StartTime, Handles,WorkingSet, PeakPagedMemorySize, PrivateMemorySize, VirtualMemorySize,`
@{Name="Total_RAM"; Expression={ ($TotalMemory )}},`
CPU,
@{Name='CPU_Usage'; Expression = { $TotalSec = (New-TimeSpan -Start $_.StartTime).TotalSeconds
[Math]::Round( ($_.CPU * 100 / $TotalSec) /$LogicalProcessors, 2) }},`
@{Name="Cores"; Expression={ ($Cores )}},`
@{Name="Logical_Cores"; Expression={ ($LogicalProcessors )}},`

UserName, ProcessName, Path | ConvertTo-Csv

    How about this for one process?



    $sleepseconds = 1
    $numcores = 4
    $id = 5244

    while($true) {
    $cpu1 = (get-process -Id $id).cpu
    sleep $sleepseconds
    $cpu2 = (get-process -Id $id).cpu
    [int](($cpu2 - $cpu1)/($numcores*$sleepseconds) * 100)
    }

      In addition to Get-Counter, you can also use Get-WmiObect to list and filter processes.



      powershell "gwmi Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfProc_Process -filter "PercentProcessorTime > 1" | Sort PercentProcessorTime -desc | ft Name, PercentProcessorTime"


      Alternatively, for Get-Counter, here is an example showing number format conversion to get rid of the annoying decimal places of the CookedValue.
      In addition to filtering, this example also illustrates sorting, limiting columns, and output formatting:



      powershell "(Get-Counter 'Process(*)% Processor Time').Countersamples | Where cookedvalue -gt 3 | Sort cookedvalue -Desc | ft -a instancename, @{Name='CPU %';Expr={[Math]::Round($_.CookedValue)}}"


      Get-Process is not the right cmdlet as it doesn't provide instantaneous CPU utilization.



      You can also get the total load for all processors:



      powershell "gwmi win32_processor | Measure-Object LoadPercentage -Average | ft -h Average"


      Or,



      typeperf -sc 4 "Processor(_Total)% Processor Time"

        Is there any way, by which we can get the CPU percentage used by a process. It should be the value that task manager shows in CPU % column.

        I was looking for a solution to get cpu, mem utilization by process. All solutions I tried where I would get the cpu but those numbers were not matching with taskmanager. So I wrote my own. Following will provide accurate cpu utilization by each process. I tested this on a I7 laptop.



        $Cores = (Get-WmiObject -class win32_processor -Property numberOfCores).numberOfCores;
        $LogicalProcessors = (Get-WmiObject –class Win32_processor -Property NumberOfLogicalProcessors).NumberOfLogicalProcessors;
        $TotalMemory = (get-ciminstance -class "cim_physicalmemory" | % {$_.Capacity})



        $DATA=get-process -IncludeUserName | select @{Name="Time"; Expression={(get-date(get-date).ToUniversalTime() -uformat "%s")}},`
        ID, StartTime, Handles,WorkingSet, PeakPagedMemorySize, PrivateMemorySize, VirtualMemorySize,`
        @{Name="Total_RAM"; Expression={ ($TotalMemory )}},`
        CPU,
        @{Name='CPU_Usage'; Expression = { $TotalSec = (New-TimeSpan -Start $_.StartTime).TotalSeconds
        [Math]::Round( ($_.CPU * 100 / $TotalSec) /$LogicalProcessors, 2) }},`
        @{Name="Cores"; Expression={ ($Cores )}},`
        @{Name="Logical_Cores"; Expression={ ($LogicalProcessors )}},`

                        In addition to Get-Counter, you can also use Get-WmiObect to list and filter processes.



                        powershell "gwmi Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfProc_Process -filter "PercentProcessorTime > 1" | Sort PercentProcessorTime -desc | ft Name, PercentProcessorTime"


                        Alternatively, for Get-Counter, here is an example showing number format conversion to get rid of the annoying decimal places of the CookedValue.
                        In addition to filtering, this example also illustrates sorting, limiting columns, and output formatting:



                        powershell "(Get-Counter 'Process(*)% Processor Time').Countersamples | Where cookedvalue -gt 3 | Sort cookedvalue -Desc | ft -a instancename, @{Name='CPU %';Expr={[Math]::Round($_.CookedValue)}}"


                        Get-Process is not the right cmdlet as it doesn't provide instantaneous CPU utilization.



                        You can also get the total load for all processors:



                        powershell "gwmi win32_processor | Measure-Object LoadPercentage -Average | ft -h Average"


                        Or,



                        typeperf -sc 4 "Processor(_Total)% Processor Time"
