CIS 3.8.64263.468 use more ram that CIS 3.5

Hello!

Today I tried CIS 3.8.64263.468. First uninstall 3.5 and then install version 3.8. Works well, but the bad is that it uses more RAM than the previous version.
The use of Paging File was increased by 50 to 60 mb, this is unacceptable. I had to go back to version 3.5.
My notebook has 512 ram installed and I do not think increasing it for now.
I only use the Comodo firewall with defense+ and Avast antivirus some time ago. I like Comodo because it is light on resources, but the latest version fails.

best regards.
Rolo.

For me, its Acceptable, because, they added new features that require more ram usage.

+1 :-TU

Buffer Over protection. Threatcast, heuristics and engine and db rebuilt…It is totally acceptable!!

I’m not sure, but I think he has the recourse bug…

On my laptop it uses less recources then before

Interesting!
Is there a known bug about resources?

Or I was dreaming or I’ve seen some posts about this ;), so it’s not official

i get the same problem. When I installed the new CIS my computer slowed down alot so I have to go back to 3.5.

Mine is under 5000k as we speak.

I use a quad core cpu. CFP.exe uses 5.6M, and CmdAgent.exe uses 3.8M
CPU usage is nominally 6%
Not heavy on resources at all.

Then maybe its a bug. I hope it will be fixed soon.

I’m seeing cmdagent.exe using 1.7MB and cfp.exe using 3.7MB. If I remember correctly, that’s even less than I was seeing with 3.5.

Avast is using more than that without any realtime protection enabled.

I’m seeing nothing odd with CPU usage either.

I think it is a bug. My CIS was using up to 65mb of memory. I uninstalled, cleaned registry, reinstalled and it still had that problem. The last version worked fine on my machine but when I upgraded totally didn’t.

Seems like I wasn’t the only person with memory issues. So it may be a bug.

I’m using a Compaq Presario SR5710F model, with Vista Premium 32bit.
