Looking at queries that take a long time and look at their plans can help in
measuring the impact on CPU. For example, a sequential scan with a large ORDER
BY would be bad. Windows is also paked with perfmon (Performance Monitor) that
you could use. Combined with PostgreSQL logs with PID information, you could
always extract some information.

In the context of Windows which has no POSIX fork() implementation, note that
the build runs under the context of EXEC_BACKEND, where each process is directly
called via automaticly-built command lines.

Still you are giving close to no information regarding your system, so general
pieces of advices are the best you can get.
