This is normal or a problem? ???

It’s a problem if it continues.
Does it occur in every boot?
I looked and Soluto says avast takes 128 seconds on my computer. That is a long time. Wonder why it’s taking so long?
I did a clean install to see if this was a reason but I’m still 128 seconds for avast to load.
Anyone know what is going on? Ver 5 didn’t take this long.
Toshiba Intel P7450 2.13 GHz, 4 Gig Ram / Win7 (x64), AIS 6.0, Malwarebytes Pro, RollbackRx, Acronis TI, SugarSync (free).
Well your system is no slouch either and comparing with previous avast5 is a good marker.
Were you also using AIS with version5 ?
However, avast 6 does have more functionality, so I don’t know if that might mean it is doing more scanning at boot if some of these applications are running on boot:
Malwarebytes Pro, RollbackRx, Acronis TI.
So their access to the system may well cause avast to do more scanning in avast6 than in avast5. I don’t know how early the behaviour shield might be running as these two applications RollbackRx, Acronis TI may have it working overtime.
There were some instances certainly in the 6.0 beta tests with some drive imaging software, so I don’t know if there might be something here in these two. Something that you could check with notepad, c:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\report\BehaviorShield.txt and see if there are any entries for either of these applications.
If so you could copy and paste the full path and file name into the BehS Trusted processes and see if it makes any difference.
I really haven’t seen any noticeable difference in boot times from avast free 5.1 to 6.0.1000 on the system in my signature and my win7 starter netbook.
I got rid of Soluto and my boot times went back to the same as V5.
LOL. ;D
Thanks DavidR. Yes, I was running AIS 5 and it didn’t have this much of a lag-time.
I don’t have that location “reports,” however, I just reinstalled AIS to see if that was an issue so possibly it hasn’t been generated yet.(?)
I am down to 82 seconds on the last boot.
YoKenny- I may indeed try removing Soluto if nothing else turns up. But it’s a nice way for non technically advanced people like myself to easily remove some things from boot.
LOL LOL
With Soluto I can tell exactly how long each item takes to book, without it it’s simply a guess or I have to time the whole process. And even with that I have no way of knowing how long each item takes. Soluto is helpful in this respect. I’m guessing there are other ways to see how long a program takes to boot, but I don’t know if it. So in this case Soluto likely pointed out a problem I would not know of.
Hmmm well… I recall a utility with the same functionality produced directly by MS (analyzing and “optimizing” boot time). It was called BootVis (?). Was discontinued by MS as it was causing more harm than good. 
Bootvis never caused harm. It was discontinued with Windows Vista. It was a good application.
So Soluto is doing its work. Maybe any other program is conflicting with avast (or the network drivers are blocking it to load).
I had my slow boots from time to time.
I’d love to just get under 40 seconds!
Tech, was that with AIS 6 or 5?
82 Seconds was my last boot time for avast (alone).
Both I suppose. Also the version 6 beta was there.
I didn’t notice the long boot time till the the finial release. Maybe I should install the last beta and see if there is any difference.
I uninstalled and tried several things but still ended up with a 106 second boot for avast.
It’s not causing a real problem as such, but I would like to get this to a normal time frame.
I just rebooted and the Behavior Shld only scanned one item, so I can’t imagine that it slowing things down.
Last boot was 127 seconds for avast!. Some of the things I have running actually boot on delay. Rollback mainly boots first, before anything else.
Any other suggestions?
The 106 seconds is for the TOTAL boot or ONLY for Avast?
This post is slightly off topic, I installed Soluto yesterday and noticed that my GUI is slightly different than the one you posted… I dont have a button called feed-back.
Also I watched the video and according to that when I right click soluto on the task bar I should get “MY PC Just Frustrated Me” , “Ongoing Frustration Research” and “Live Boot Progress”. But I dont see any of that when I right click… I have a different set of menus :-\ “PC Readiness Monitor”, “Advanced” and they contain options to disable it on startup/ exit on boot etc… Is your set of menus according to the video or like mine?
My avast boot time is my concern, not the total time for everything. Avast is the only one that at times takes over a minute and a half to load. The most recent time for avast alone was 51 seconds. I can live with that compared to 121 seconds from time to time.
