title: CPU utilization by database?
body: <p>Is it possible to get a breakdown of CPU utilization <strong>by database</strong>?</p>
  
  <p>I'm ideally looking for a Task Manager type interface for SQL server, but instead of looking at the CPU utilization of each PID (like <code>taskmgr</code>) or each SPID (like <code>spwho2k5</code>), I want to view the total CPU utilization of each database. Assume a single SQL instance.</p>
  
  <p>I realize that tools could be written to collect this data and report on it, but I'm wondering if there is any tool that lets me see a live view of which databases are contributing most to the <code>sqlservr.exe</code> CPU load.</p>
