Why Antivirus uses so much RAM?

[QUOTE="SumTingWong, post: 771128, member: 71335"] 500MB - 1GB of RAM usage for antivirus is a big no for me. DDR4 ain't cheap. Bitdefender IS 2019 uses 400MB+ and it still performs sluggish, so the conclusion for me is more RAM usage doesn't mean better performance at all. 32GB RAM is barely enough for professional workload. I will not support this case if they are okay for their software to use this huge amount of RAM because RAM is cheap ( Not in the case of DDR4 mate), and they are too lazy to optimize their software for better RAM usage, so they have to make an excuse " High RAM usage is better for antivirus."
