[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 867095, member: 32260"] While scanning, the computer was slower and [B][S]overall 76%[/S] overall 100% CPU[/B] usage was consistently kept both on idle and when running applications. WD got a kind of optimization, so it automatically consumed fewer CPU resources if something else was executed, so I could use other applications. After one hour ( 1137000 files checked) I canceled the full scan. The WD service CPU usage dropped to 20% and WD alerted to quarantine many H_C executables from my intermediate builds (about 300). After adding them to exclusions, the WD service has gone away (0% CPU usage). Post edited. The 76% CPU usage was due to my custom CPU options. [/QUOTE]
