Which memory are you looking at? Working set? The memory allocation will go up and down dramatically as avastsvc.exe does its thing, and then the memory will be given back. Windows 7 Memory Manager takes care of that. My peak working set in Task Manager is ~365M; currently 2-5M. Usual trade between time and space. :slight_smile: Unless you are stuck at 85K, which would indicate either a problem or something ongoing that takes a lot of memory.
