Much work has been done in the new version of AVG IS. It is much lighter and the GUI opens very fast and resources consumption is very low.
i confirm this. i only have one problem with AVG firewall. i enable the option of notify me for any new allow rules but it doesn`t work and when i tried the same with Avast, i found it working and Avast shows notification when allowing any application to connect. i don`t know why it doesn`t work in AVG.

Just contact their support (assuming your a paid customer). The new version is ultra light.

i will contact them but i want to know if you have the same situation or just me and yes the new version is very light. i like the new update and the changes in the gui a lot.
It is working fine here. Maybe the issue is related to your system.

Edit

I have installed some more programmes and I confirm the issue. We'll have to contact support.
