Advice on Oil Pressure

I have a Lycoming Injected 360 on my aircraft.
I notice that on take-off the oil pressure goes up to about 100 psi - this is brought to my attention by my Engine Information System (which is set at 90 psi as maximum) bleeping and flashing at me!
Practical advice (not just "refer to the POH") would be of help. Shall I simply ignore this or will it prove bad for the engine or even could it cause a problem in flight. I am getting a bit neurotic about this but it only happens during the take off climb.
How serious a problem is this?
