I want to have an idea of the amount of CPU and memory that is being used. I have a website hosted using IIS, and have clients connecting to it. I want to find out the amount of load that the CPU, RAM and the network has when multiple clients connect. I tried out using tools like Fiddler, the inbuilt Resource Manager, and also some other applications I found on the internet. I just want to keep track of all these data in a file, so I can plot out a graph and find out how the CPU, etc. is performing. I read a few other posts, but didn't find anything that solves the problem. Is there good CPU / Memory Logging tool available, just to plot a graph of the usage, etc.?

EDIT : I want to know of some tool that can save the performance details in a log file, so that I can use it to plot a graph, etc.

You mention IIS so I'll guess you're using Windows of some sort. You can use PerfMon in most recent versions of Windows to record performance counters to a log file. It comes with Windows so there won't be anything else to install.

Details here and more here.

perfmon gives only the CPU usage details right? What about the network and memory part of it? Any ideas for those? – wittythotha Jun 20 '11 at 23:11

PerfMon has counters for the entire range of performance statistics, that includes memory and network. – EightBitTony Jun 20 '11 at 23:12
