Lightest Anti-Virus you ever used?
First of all, I know that no antivirus is 100% secure, and that the best protection is surfing smart.
But I've been searching for this answer for a long time. Its a fact that most top tier anti-virus programs (Avast, Avira, AVG etc), be it free or paid offer decent protection, some slightly better than the other. But, some of them are very heavy on computer resources while the others are very light. Why so?
And most importantly the main question, which antivirus do you think is the lightest on system resources?
(In terms of memory, CPU and disk usage)
For example, currently using Kaspersky IS 2016, and on idle it uses around roughly 40MBs of RAM and ~0.4% of CPU.
But the lightest I came across is Webroot, with less than 20MBs of RAM and 0% CPU usage. (I know these results vary between different computers, but rough estimates are fine).
