Anybody ever wonder why RAV is not tested on AV-Comp? Too inferior maybe?

I am getting to be a bit perturbed by Avast's memory use--not the app itself, but how it builds up in AshWebService.I am at 79MB for that as I type, & two other "ash" things use another 23MB.This is in v4.8, & I am not using everything available with the program.Like Firefox, once it grabs RAM, it doesn't let go.

Avast 5 has a 2 processes, AvastSvc, taking 35-40MB of working set on my Vista64 HPremium, and AvastUI taking 10MB. Comparing to other processes, it is not much. E.g. even so simple one as Process Explorer take almost 50MB. Avast 5 is said to be designed to take less memory as avast 4.x. -- Poutnik The best depends on how the best is defined. |
