 * Hello!
 * This plugin is great, and the blog I had been getting spam comments now have 
   zero! I am very happy about it but I recently, I am getting into a little bit
   of trouble.
 * I am hosting my wordpress with a share host, and I have been getting very slow
   page load because I am using 100% of my limited CPU usage. I am trying to figure
   out what cause that to happen.
 * I would like to know if Anti-Spam use a lot of extra CPU power to load? Thank
   you! Your information will be great help!

 * Anti-spam needs very little amount of CPU.
    I am 99,99% sure that it could not
   be the reason of 100% CPU usage.

 * I ran a P3 (Plugin Performance Profiler) scan, and Anti Virus did not show up
   in the list of plugins taking up the most load time (it was in the “Other” list).
   Out of 1.524 seconds of plugin load time (I run 18 plugins on the site I tested)
   Anti Span used 0.0095 seconds.
 * It is very difficult to measure an individual plugin’s cpu usage, but load time
   is a good indicator, and as you can see, Anti Spam does not take much time to
   load.
