Has anyone noticed any improvement in how this new version scales with large Defense+ rulesets? After using CPF for a long time my system’s responsiveness has been dramatically decreased after remembering a new Defense+ rule (:SAD)
That’s not good Unfortunately it’s getting worse week after week even after disabling all Defence+ and Firewall logging. I don’t know but I am close to give up on this great firewall
There was certainly and improvement in the learning and alert speed since that original message. Some programs when they are initially “learnt” might slow down slightly when loading but This will only happen once for each program.
I am not entirely convinced as Goldentime was refering to version 3.0.22.349 which is the newest at the moment. I second his opinon, because after each confirmation for Defense+ I observe that CPU usage reaches over 90% and system is non-responsive.
I’ve noticed that if i you don’t select “Remember this answer” in the dialog it has instantaneous response, however if you select remember option it gets about 3-5 seconds delay and the increasing CPU as reported. Maybe it has something to do with the rule writing routine.
