You can use Windows Server Resource Manager (free download) to do that
(process, not web granularity), but I wouldn't recommend it, as a rule it
just decreases perf. When you limit the CPU to say, CPU0, then the process
in question can only get to CPU0. But any other thread that becomes
available to run that is in another process (or in the kernel) could also
grab CPU0 (based on thread priority, etc.); so you could in effect starve
the process of CPU even though other CPU's are near idle. I'd recommend
reading Inside Windows 2000 (or the follow-on book for 2k3) from
SysInternals to get a better understanding of threads, processes, &
scheduling.
Alternatively, you can limit the number of CPU's that are available to a
process via taskman (right click on the process name).
Out of curiosity, why would you want to limit the CPU's?
