[QUOTE="Trident, post: 1039192, member: 99014"] The first two (K7 and Panda) don’t really do much. I’ve not tested K7 in depth but Panda is not optimised at all and not *that* light. It scans applications again and again on every launch. Avira is also not that light. F-Secure’s results look a bit like an error. Total Defence is based on Bitdefender (it is almost a full rebrand that includes Active Virus Control/Advanced Threat Defence as well) but it doesn’t look like they handle the engine too well. If the results are accurate they need to look at caching algorithms. Trend Micro on AVC performance test always did bad. On the previous test it mysteriously was presented as light and on this test it is “heavy” again (which it actually is). Unless Trend Micro has 2 magic buttons “make it light” and “make it heavy” I don’t see how it’s possible. The whole test doesn’t look too trustworthy to me. Also Kaspersky (specially in default configuration) is not lighter than Norton. [/QUOTE]
