Never needed to do that with ESET, Kaspersky, Avast or Bitdefender, the ones I've tested. Mostly I just disable any extensions added by the antimalware software and that avoids problems.
I do the same. So far I have not had problems on more than one computer. I apply the same for mobile devices in my family.

My browsing slows down when I have web protection and Adguard for Desktop running. Browsing speeds up if I use the Adguard extension and exclude Firefox in the desktop app. Meanwhile, I still use the latter to block ads in some apps.
I read that Adguard interferes with AV web protection and that one should be excluded from the other, and vice versa. I don't know if that's true, but for some reason, browsing no longer slowed down when I did, and both ad blocking and web protection continued to work.
This also reminds me of problems I had with one VPN app which had a tunneling system, where I could use it on a downloader that needs VPN while using a browser to view websites that don't need VPN but still needed to block ads. I can't remember what I did now, but I think I had to exclude the VPN app in Adguard and then include Adguard in the tunnel system for apps that don't need VPN, or something like that.
What you mention makes sense. Both products "intercept" web traffic using, I guess, different techniques. And although they do not conflict, the process itself carries a load for the browser or the system.
I hope I'm not talking nonsense.

Its better not to have overlapping security features from different software at a time. To get maximum performance keep the number Adguard filter lists to the minimum ( i suggest less than 6) and use a nvme ssd for os drive.

I'm having a problem with Adguard desktop that is making me consider uninstalling it for the first time in years.
1) It's causing Nescafe Dolce Gusto page to give me an access denied error, even after setting it to my exclusions.
2) In one of the sites I need for work, it blocks online digital signing. I have to ask the site to sign a document multiple times until it finally requests my certificate's password.
I think I don't need to say neither problem happens if I completely unload Adguard and that both sites are on my no filtering exclusions. In other words, Adguard is in the way of my coffee and my work... not good

Opened a ticket with support, let's see if they can help me. Just to add my previous post, whatever happens seems to be silent. I see no strange blocking or error in the logs.

Someone at the Adguard forum offered this suggestion to speed up browsing:
Go to settings - network
and disable enable traffic filtering.
Restart the machine, and go back to the same settings page, and enable Use Adguard as an HTTP proxy. Note the port number given in the box.
Search for proxy settings in Windows, and then run it. Activate manual proxy setup and use the ff.
address: 127.0.0.1
port: the number given in the Adguard settings
Check the option not to use it proxy server for local addresses, and then click on the save button.

AdGuard for Windows 7.15
Release date: October 9, 2023
“To infinity and beyond” could be the motto of our hard-working AdGuard team. This time, we are pleased to introduce the fresh new version of AdGuard for Windows.
New HTTP/3 filtering
One of the major updates in this version is the support for HTTP/3 filtering, powered by our CoreLibs v1.12. HTTP/3 (HTTP-over-QUIC) is the latest version of the HTTP protocol that uses QUIC instead of TCP. The QUIC network protocol offers many advantages over the TCP transport layer protocol, such as improved privacy and security, faster internet connection, and the ability to handle data packets in any order. Enabling HTTP/3 filtering also means more efficient ad blocking. You’re welcome!
Currently, HTTP/3 filtering only works in Edge and Firefox browsers. This is because Chrome has different logic for verifying QUIC and TCP certificates, which does not accept AdGuard certificates. However, this feature is available in Advanced settings for testing and debugging purposes to ensure seamless operation.
Annoying bugs belong in the past
We’ve addressed a minor problem in context menus — the dark theme now appears flawless. Additionally, upon installation, you will now have five recommended ad-blocking filters readily accessible instead of just one. This upgrade will make life easier and protect you from annoying ads.
Along with other fixes, we have made several improvements to boost the overall performance of AdGuard for Windows. Previously, the application would sometimes crash due to high memory usage. However, we have addressed this issue. Also, when the internet connection was unstable or very slow, the application could behave unpredictably or even crash. Now, everything works more smoothly.
To top it all off, we have updated the WFP and TDI drivers, and as per our tradition, we have also updated CoreLibs, DnsLibs, and scriptlets to ensure even more stable operation.

AdGuard for Windows 7.16
Release date: December 22, 2023
What number is the answer to the question of life, the universe, and everything? Frankly, no clue, but AdGuard v7.16 for Windows is all about 64. We’re excited to announce that our app is now compatible with 64-bit systems.
What does it mean?
Well, most Windows computers nowadays are 64-bit, they have more resources such as processing power and memory than their 32-bit predecessors. AdGuard has been loyal to the 32-bit version, but progress marches on. It’s time to embrace 64-bit compatibility, which we hope will lead to a more responsive experience for our users and make turning filters on and off feel like pure magic.
But AdGuard still works on 32-bit computers, right?
The trusty 32-bit machines will not be forgotten. You won’t need to download a separate installer: our system will automatically detect your computer’s bitness, allowing you to install the appropriate version.
Anything new with filtering in this version?
Of course! Another big change is that we have improved HTML filtering. We’ve added support for selectors in HTML filtering rules, which helps block ads more effectively.
OK, what else you’ve got?
Our latest DnsLibs brings a new feature to AdGuard for Windows: basic HTTP authentication. Why is this useful?
Those who use the DNS-over-HTTPS protocol also benefit from the features of the HTTP protocol. For instance, when using DoH, you have an authentication option that standard DNS servers simply do not have.
But what if you have a custom DNS server and you want to restrict access to it? Surely you can do it by restricting access by IP address. However, mobile devices, for example, change networks frequently. How to deal with that? This is where HTTP authentication support comes in. Using this feature in AdGuard for Windows, you can include authentication information to connect to a custom DNS server.
This feature is currently not available in AdGuard Home and AdGuard DNS, but you will be the first to know when it is!
Surely that’s it, right?
We haven't finished yet. When it comes to HTTPS filtering, it can be difficult to сheck the original domain certificate. We’ve covered this issue in our Knowledge base. While AdGuard does (always!) verify validity, you might want to check it yourself.
To make HTTPS filtering more transparent for users, AdGuard now offers an option to view the original certificate in “Filtering log”. Here, you can check the details of any web request, see what kind of encryption AdGuard has used, and view the original certificate.
As you can see from the massive changelog, we haven’t been idle since the last release. We haven’t left the WFP and TDI drivers behind either: they’ve been freshly updated. Anyway, let’s cut the talking and go straight to updating!
