Try this script to see what queries are taking over a second.
To get some real output, you need a long-running query. Here's one
(estimated to take over an hour):
PRINT GETDATE()
select count_big(*)
from sys.objects s1, sys.objects s2, sys.objects s3,
sys.objects s4, sys.objects s5
PRINT GETDATE()
Output is:
session_id elapsed task_alloc task_dealloc runningSqlText FullSqlText
query_plan
51 32847 0 0 select count_big(*) from sys.objects s1, sys.objects s2,
sys.objects s3, sys.objects s4, sys.objects s5 SQL Plan
Clicking on SQL opens the full SQL batch as a .txt file, including the PRINT
statements
Clicking on Plan allows you to see the .sqlplan file in MSSMS

Title: Using a VB Script to show long-running queries, complete with query
plans.
Today (July 14th), I found a query running for hours on a development box.
Rather than kill it, I decided to use this opportunity to develop a script
to show long-running queries, so I could see what was going on. (Reference
Roy Carlson's article for the idea.)
This script generates a web page which shows long-running queries with the
currently-executing SQL command, full SQL text, and .sqlplan files. The full
SQL query text and the sqlplan file are output to files in your temp
directory. If you have SQL Management Studio installed on the local
computer, you should be able to open the .sqlplan to see the query plan of
the whole batch for any statement.
