    I stopped looking at their tests. Look at the performance results, seems like all of them are either super light or very light. This is far from the truth. I've tested a lot of the so called light performers in their results and they were very heavy like Kaspersky Anti-Virus for example, every time I open up my software folder which contains many EXE installers and folders with custom icons, they load in slow motion, just like they do with Windows Defender. And yes I did perform a full system scan and reboot thinking that maybe KAV would whitelist them but no luck.
