Windows - psutil.test() cpu_percent = 0

[ladislashornok]

Hi,

When I use psutil.test() in a windows cmd :

python -c "import psutil; psutil.test()"

the cpu_percent is always equal to zero.

If a start python :

import psutil
psutil.test()

Then the cpu_percent values are right.

Python 2.7.10 / psutil version 5.1.3 / tested on Windows 10 and Windows 2008 R2 Standard

Thanks.

Yes, the CPU column is irrelevant (always shows 0%) because in order to get a meaningful value cpu_percent method would need more time. I added it in order to emulate ps command, which also shows a CPU% column of 0%. It probably makes sense to remove it.
