A couple of people have mentioned using PDH for this purpose--
one having pointed out that it's already wrapped for Python. If I
remember correctly, PDH is unavailable under Win9x. There's a
sample program code (written in C?) available on MSDN that shows
how to capture similar information for both Win9x or WinNT/2K.
