Monitoring a program's CPU usage

Hello everybody!

A client has asked if I could make sure that a certain program that I am
mainaining does not use more that 80% CPU.

The program copies tables from an Interbase database to an MS Access
database. When it is run it takes 99% CPU.

My first spontaneous idea was the let the program sleep for some seconds
if more than a certain amount of records are about to be copied (I can
do this check for each table I copy).

Still, it is not exactly what the client asks for.

Does anybody have any idea how the demand could be satisfied?


Best regards,
Anatoly
