Best practice for on-access scanning

Hi,

we're having some older computers who are experiencing some problems. Their machines are extremely slow when using the default on-access settings. From the moment we disable the on-access scanning, the computers work without any problem. As it's not done to let it disabled, I'm looking for a way to set it for those computers that they're safe but also that they can keep working. What are your suggestions?

  • Hello Jo,

    older computers

    how old, and which OS and SESC versions? extremely slow when doing what, which applications are run on these computers? If it's resource contention then it's not very likely that only scanning puts performance over the edge, normally you'd notice it in other situations as well. Though - how much RAM?  

    From the moment we disable the on-access scanning

    so the effect is immediately noticeable? If there is significant HTTP traffic - have you tried to disable Web Protection only? Detailed performance monitoring and measurement will of course give better insight but then this needs additional resources. Hm ...
