F-Prot has always far outperformed all other virus scanners except
maybe ClamAV when run as a service. I did though just check my scan
times for AVG and F-Prot in debug mode and AVG does appear to now be
taking about 40% longer than it did a month or so ago. Their release
notes indicate that they have added "conservative" detection of
encrypted zip files, and this capability might be the cause. Maybe
there are some new switches?

After last nights update for AVG7, for the first
time I was required to re-boot. Since then it appears that the time to
execute has gone up dramatically. The debug log showing one scan below
illustrates F-Prot at 62 ms and AVG taking 515 ms. Has anyone else seen
this today? My overflow file was showing files during the 8-10 period
this morning but has settled down at this point.
