That post helped greatly, thanks BrowserUK.

I am able to determine the PIDS, but now I need to get the CPU info. Here's what I came up with using win32-process-info:

(note: I've been using perl for less than a week so this script may be a bit ugly)

use Win32::Process::Info;
Win32::Process::Info->Set (variant => 'WMI');
my $pi = Win32::Process::Info->new();
for ( $pi->ListPids )
{
    my ($info) = $pi->GetProcInfo ($_);
    if ($info->{Name} =~ /notepad/gi ) {
    $pid =  $info->{ProcessId};
    push @pids, $pid;
    }
}
print "@pids";

After I got that working, I started researching the win32::process::perf module. However, that module seems to accept only the name of the process instead of the PID. That won't work for me here.

Any ideas on how to match the PIDs with CPU utilization?

the help has been much appreciated!
