Is there a program that logs this, or at least lets me see in real time which process is running on which core? I don't think the task manager quite does either of these.

I don't think this has what you are looking for but it's a lot better than the standard task manager. Process Explorer found at technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx – Nifle Feb 1 '10 at 16:33

I think you are assuming that a process gets run on a fixed core, but this is not true. Processes will jump from core to core way to fast to monitor visually.

No, I am not assuming that. – josh Feb 5 '10 at 14:55
@josh, in that case it is not clear what you are asking for. – Mick Feb 5 '10 at 17:08

For a command-line solution you may be interested in the pslist utility, which is part of the pstools suite. I'm afraid it doesn't show processor affinity, but it will enable you to log which processes are running and for how long.

The official site for pstools can be found here.
