  • I think you will not get it noticeably faster, and probably wasting your time trying to tune something.

    Sophos has over 30 processes, belonging to a dozend services, depending on some other and so on.

    We're living with it, drinking more coffee while we wait the few seconds in the morning.

  • This should change considerably soon, I understand that Sophos Anti-Virus component is going to be removed soon, that will remove:

    4 Drivers:

    1. savonaccess
    2. sdcfilter
    3. swi_callout
    4. SophosBootDriver

    6 User mode services:

    1. SAVService
    2. SAVAdminService
    3. Sophos Device Control Service
    4. Sophos Web Control Service
    5. swi_filter
    6. swi_service

    2 Processes:

    1. swi_fc.exe
    2. savapi.exe

    I think that the following services are also going to be removed as well around the same time and become just processes:

    1. Sophos Clean Service
    2. Sophos Safestore Service
    3. Sophos AutoUpdate Service

    Something to look forward to.
