Avast Small Business Server CPU Usage?
« on: August 02, 2014, 07:05:28 AM »
We have an Avast Small Business Server running as a virtual machine on Windows Server 2012 R2 inside of a Hyper-V 2012 R2 host. The Hyper-V host is a Xeon E5-2637 v2 @ 3.50GHz (Dell M620 Blade) and I've assigned 2 cores to the VM. The VM has 4GB of memory assigned to it and 3GB is free.

The Avast service (Avast.Sbc.Service) utilizes 10% of the CPU constantly. If I try and throttle the usage, the Avast.Sbc.Service process rises accordingly.

We only have about 11 machines reporting in to this server right now.

Why is this?
