[QUOTE="RoboMan, post: 1091309, member: 53544"] RAM & CPU usage is an incomplete view of performance. Aforementioned, you should see for yourself the times your system takes to do certain tasks, such as copy folders, running programs, etc. An antivirus can slow down these tasks depending on its scanning technology and mostly its way to deal with file scan. For example, an antivirus can scan a file on creation, on execution or on modification. It can also scan a file by format or extension. All these approaches can end on different overall performances.
