Saw this today in my log file:

08:38:29:239   4304   checked ETH share on CPU, spent 4ms
08:38:48:975   43b8   checked ETH share on CPU, spent 3ms
08:39:09:055   43c0   checked ETH share on CPU, spent 3ms

Don`t think that is normal.

Nothing to worry about, this is totally normal.
Look back through your old logs, (use grep for example), and you'll see it's a regular event in the log.
Mr Claymore would be the only person who can explain why he's programmed this, but no doubt there is a logical reason.

Side note: Generally, (assuming the programmer is not a total moron), log entries will have some prefix, or suffix, "warning", "error", "OK", "good" etc etc, which makes life easier when searching logs for problem events, or notable events you might like to check on.

Conversely, if you don't see such annotations, and the log entry is not self explanatory, you can generally ignore such entries. (as in they are not things you need to worry about).

And No, it's not a virus either.

Thanks for your reply iSuX. I was just wondering why is there CPU share

Thanks iSuX.  I checked old logs and see that this event is in all of them.  I never noticed it before.  I was experiencing system instability yesterday, checked the log, saw this event, assumed it was a virus, ran virus scanner, removed viruses, and system went back to stable.  IDK how I got a virus, but thanks for pointing out that it's not related to the cpu share.

Like Snake, I would appreciate an explanation from Claymore for why the program is checking for eth shares on the CPU.  Maybe it's checking for a virus mining on the cpu?
