CPU usage cannot be directly measured because, unlike an x86, the ARM processor doesn’t have a register for it. You can calculate it using the Toolhelp APIs to get a list of processes and their child threads and then use GetThreadTimes to figure out how much time each thread is using.
Keep in mind that doing this calculation directly affects how much the CPU is in use.
