Hello.

Which is lighter and faster between the two?

Which one will add the least boot time?

Thanks.

Whereas by providing the great customization in HIPS a advanced user can protect himself greatly, really if you are an advanced user configure HIPS & see no Virus would be able to penetrate ESET HIPS.
Don't think so, ESET HIPS gets 220/340 in my clt leak test in default & in tweak settings ( firewall) & i saw in some test where private/outpost firewall & some other HIPS firewall get 200+ in leak test & some malware able to penetrate there HIPS.

Well I am thinking of not using an AV at all! I'll just use a powerful HIPS or anti-exec... plus web filter and MCShield.

U don't need to enable MCshield or any USB security product unless u stick USB sticks in ur ports all time . Just open MCShield & then stick ur pen drive & after job finished, close MCShield completely, plus try to check update for MCShield daily once a time. and imao u don't need any 'anti-executable' since they don't know wut program u clicking, they will just ask ur opinion is it safe or not, they r totally user dependent, so if a noob click allow & white list it then he/she will compromised his/her PC. I know vooodooshield gave a option to scan file with VT serach but u can do it with free tool like VT uploader. since u have safe surfing/downloading habit along with safe computing habit then u don't need any HIPS or any anti-executable. If u don't want any AV then enable ur default window built AV , u can scan ur usb stick with ur AV since MCShield not catch all type of malware,, don't always depend on anti-executable/HIPS/url filter or even ur commonsense since a human do mistake , it our habit ;)

Many people stick their flashdrives on my system. VoodooShield is great with its "default-deny" strategy. Default Av which is Windows Defender isn't good because it lags my system when opening folder of executables. Well it will leave me to ESET vs. no AV... either way, I'm protected! MCShield has never failed to catch a malware... it has deleted over 300...

Yes coz MCShield is specially made for USB to catch malwares which AV vendor missed but it won't help u if any ransomware, rootki/bootkit/keylogger or any trojan are inside ur USB stick, so u still need a AV to scan ur USB. since MCShield detect over 300 infection in ur USB sticks, it's better to add some few tools which will disable autorun.inf in ur USB drive so when u stick ur pendrive in a infected machine, it won't get infected via autorun or u can write protect ur usb sticks, disable autorun in ur system & can use ratool to deny access or deny write access for usb sticks . btw, it's better to never stick pen drive in a infected machine/unknown/insecure machine. btw, i have a netbook too & window defender not slowing down anything plus online armor free gives same level of protection as any anti-executable, no need to waste money if u have better control over urself. Anyways if it's ur choice then u go brah :D

I assume disabling startup scans and the like would cause that eset performance warning to dismiss.
However just seeing that warning on my own computer doesn't really concern me by adding 3 seconds, which is what mine states it takes to open.
The fact yours takes 44 seconds tells me there is something wrong on your system that is conflicting with ESET.
Sorry i call it as i see it.
Here is mine as proof:
https://www.mediafire.com/convkey/06ca/yyvr1qhbk9978086g.jpg

When i examined mine for these performance degradations i noticed they were from 2012.
It is now 2014 and i do not have ANY of those logs any longer. So ESET is not affecting my boot time at all, and it probably means its slower then 3 seconds.

@Koroke San , i am terribly sorry , but your ESET config is not working properly and it is not installed correctly.
You have something, most likely a driver that is slowing yours down. Do you see where i am going with mine compared to yours ?
Hopefully so, and if you would be interested in creating a post on the ESET forums, the mods and I can assist with discovering what is causing your ESET not to start properly and quick. :)
Either way if you are already using a product your happy with, that is ok too !!

well broo, i already have ESET installed on my PC, i installed it after refreshing my window 8 so i guess i don't think something is wrong in my PC. Plus i configured MY ESET from Umbra thread & installed it correctly :- http://malwaretips.com/threads/how-to-set-eset-smart-security-for-max-protection.14466/
and it depends , my system is 3+ yrs old. Maybe ur system is new & u probably using a SSHD or SSD drive imao. But i only get those results 3-4 times & i'm sure ESET eating 15-20 seconds startup time in my system after disabling it GUI at startup, maybe it's not good for old system like me. but it don't bother me & no thnx for offer, i don't need now, will buy a new system with SSD drive & my boot time will decrease lol :)

No my computer is more then 5 years old.
I'm not bothering you, just ensuring people that come here don't think ESET takes 50 seconds to turn on. It doesnt.
If you don't believe me i will compress and upload my entire performance log. Its ready at 50KB.
I don't mean that you messed up on settings when you installed, Umbra does have a very nice blog for settings. I mean there are other drivers or software that is causing your slow boot times with ESET. It's almost a fact after looking at your picture.
Good day :)
