Yet the labs and most reviews praise it as being light.
#BAIDU ANTIVIRUS REPAIR PAGE PLUS#
Biggest surprise was Bitdefender (paid versions) using so much memory (200MB plus at idle – almost as much as McAfee!).

It’s funny, being a geek I did a test like this myself over the past 12 months on the 2015/2016 versions, using pretty much the same process as these guys did. If your current package is hungry for memory, this does give you a good idea of what the lightest antivirus packages are that you might like to look at a bit closer. Therefore you shouldn’t automatically assume lighter is better because a more memory efficient program might not have the amount of features of an antivirus using a few more Megabytes. Although Bitdefender’s memory did fluctuate a lot, on average it still consumes a lot of memory for a program with virtually no features or options.įinal Note: While these results obviously test the antivirus memory usage, they don’t take into account the features present in each application and its detection rates. What used to be possibly the lightest antivirus package you could get for free, is now quite heavy on memory usage, especially during a scan. While Comodo seems to have improved its memory efficiency in recent times, Avira appears to have gone in the opposite direction.

Some small surprises were Comodo, Bitdefender Free and Avira for different reasons.For efficient memory usage, Avast is the no.1 free antivirus by far. Idle resource usage was also very impressive.

During scanning Avast kept flushing its memory every 10 seconds which kept usage at a very low level, and it should never grow above a small number of Megabytes.
