Solution

  • Besides third party tools, there is Windows Performance Monitor that can help. It shows real-time graphs, and can save the performance information into files that you can open and analyze later

    It provides multiple metrics for CPU, memory, I/O and Network utilization, and shows an instance for each processor on the machine. It can also be used to monitor remote machines

    You can also create collector sets, to have all monitored counters in a single component
