How do you know the battery drain was caused by CPU usage, as opposed to something like network?

I had checked the statistics on the Play Framework service that it ran under. There was abnormally high CPU usage, high battery usage, and it was running all the time.

Lots of apps use the Play Framework, not just Google Now.

I am aware. But consider that I literally disabled/enabled it with intent to discover if it was the problem. It was. Google Now is a huge drain. Googling it turns up thousands of other similar experiences unfortunately. [1]
