I’m inclined to think SCOM… how can you monitor Perf counters with Health Analyzer?
Look at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff758658(v=office.14).aspx. There is said “If you are making use of the usage database, then you can add the performance counters that assist you in monitoring and evaluating your farm’s performance to the usage database, such that they are logged automatically at a specific interval (30 minutes by default).” You can achieve this by using the Add-SPDiagnosticsPerformanceCounter PowerShell cmdlet. There is an example for adding the % Processor Time counter to the usage database in the technet article.
Amendment: There’s an excellent post written by Yousef Omar regarding monitoring: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/yousefomar/archive/2011/06/24/sharepoint-health-and-monitoring-a-primer-practical-techniques-from-the-filed.aspx
