"Share is above target" messages when mining cutting half of hashing power?

[dude77]

I'm getting a lot of "Share above target" messages when I put cgminer in verbose mode. My hardward ghs as reported in cgminer is right, but in the pools it always gives me a lot less credit, like half. Here's a log:

Here are some ways I've tried invoking it:

rem causes "Share is above target" messages
rem cgminer -o stratum+tcp://mint.bitminter.com:3333 -u me.1 -p 1 --bflsc-overheat 90

rem also causes "Share is above target" messages
rem cgminer -o http://mint.bitminter.com:8332 -u me.1 -p 1 --bflsc-overheat 90


rem also causes "Share is above target" messages
rem cgminer -o stratum+tcp://nl1.ghash.io:3334 -u me.worker1 -p 1 --bflsc-overheat 90

rem also causes "Share is above target" messages
rem cgminer -o http://mint.bitminter.com:8332 -u me.1 -p 1 --bflsc-overheat 90 --fix-protocol


Any ideas on what this is about or how to fix it?

I am encountering the same issue with wemineltc and cgminer

Alright but you guy should try the 'services' section because that's not so easy to fix that here.
