I try to get in my program CPU usage divided by a cores. Now I use the PerformanceCounter
and changing the InstanceName between 0 and 1 I have the data from 2 cores.
PerformanceCounter pc0 = new PerformanceCounter("Processor", "% Processor Time", "0");
PerformanceCounter pc1 = new PerformanceCounter("Processor", "% Processor Time", "1");
How I can get core usage for 3rd, 4th core etc.?
Does anyone can help me?
Thanks
I havent used PerformanceCounter before but is there something wrong with doing this?
PerformanceCounter pc0 = new PerformanceCounter("Processor", "% Processor Time", "0");
PerformanceCounter pc1 = new PerformanceCounter("Processor", "% Processor Time", "1");
PerformanceCounter pc2 = new PerformanceCounter("Processor", "% Processor Time", "2");
PerformanceCounter pc3 = new PerformanceCounter("Processor", "% Processor Time", "3");
I suspect that what you are really asking is "How do I count the number of cores?". This code will count the number of cores, and then create performance counters based on that.
int coreCount = 0;
foreach (var item in new System.Management.ManagementObjectSearcher("Select * from Win32_Processor").Get())
{
coreCount += int.Parse(item["NumberOfCores"].ToString());
}
PerformanceCounter[] pc = new PerformanceCounter[coreCount];
for (int i = 0; i < coreCount; i++)
{
pc[i] = new PerformanceCounter("Processor", "% Processor Time", i.ToString());
Console.WriteLine(pc[i].CounterName);
}
This might be an old question, but for anyone else looking for a different solution, why don't you use System.Environment?
public static List<System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter> GetPerformanceCounters()
{
List<System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter> performanceCounters = new List<System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter>();
int procCount = System.Environment.ProcessorCount;
for (int i = 0; i < procCount; i++)
{
System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter pc = new System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter("Processor", "% Processor Time", i.ToString());
performanceCounters.Add(pc);
}
return performanceCounters;
}
EDIT: I noticed this only returns the amount of logical processors, not the actual core count.
Some thing like this should also work for your requirement
public List<string> GetServerStatus()
{
List<string> cpuStatus = new List<string>();
ObjectQuery wmicpus = new WqlObjectQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_Processor");
ManagementObjectSearcher cpus = new ManagementObjectSearcher(wmicpus);
try
{
int coreCount = 0;
int totusage = 0;
foreach (ManagementObject cpu in cpus.Get())
{
//cpuStatus.Add(cpu["DeviceId"] + " = " + cpu["LoadPercentage"]);
coreCount += 1;
totusage += Convert.ToInt32(cpu["LoadPercentage"]);
}
if (coreCount > 1)
{
double ActUtiFloat = totusage / coreCount;
int ActUti = Convert.ToInt32(Math.Round(ActUtiFloat));
//Utilisation = ActUti + "%";
cpuStatus.Add("CPU = " + ActUti);
}
else
{
cpuStatus.Add("CPU = " + totusage);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw ex;
}
finally
{
cpus.Dispose();
}
return cpuStatus;
}
foreach (var item in new System.Management.ManagementObjectSearcher("Select NumberOfLogicalProcessors from Win32_Processor").Get())
{
coreCount += int.Parse(item["NumberOfLogicalProcessors"].ToString());
}
PerformanceCounter[] pc = new PerformanceCounter[coreCount];
for (int i = 0; i < coreCount; i++)
{
pc[i] = new PerformanceCounter("Processor", "% Processor Time", i.ToString());
}
