Looks as if user is performing a search when logging on to Dashboard with scheduled searches

All my Dashboards are based on results of scheduled saved searches, so why does it look as if the user is performing a search just by logging on to the Dashboard? - ref below from audit log.

Is this search saving the results somewhere?

My guess is you are thinking that saved searches == saved results, which isn't necessarily true. The search is still being run in order to get the results back to populate the dashboard.
