Process Explorer will give you usage details down to the thread level for any process.

  1. Run your app
  2. Run Process Explorer (after downloading it ;-)
  3. Double click on your executable in the process list
  4. Select the Threads tab and there you will see:
    1. The Thread ID
    2. CPU Usage
    3. Cycles Delta
    4. And the start address

The TID ought to be enough to nail down your CPU hogging thread.

As Paul Sasik suggests, Process Explorer is probably what you want to do. If your debugging strategy involves monitoring code that is in your application itself, use GetThreadTimes.
