Rootkit scanning is much faster... is just comparing 'before' and 'after' processes running to discover hidden files and infections.

Mine only lasts for 3 seconds.

Which "standalone" do you mean the asqhquick method or the aswar.exe program?

aswar.exe

The aswar.exe has not been updated since the initial beta release (at least it had not been yesterday when I checked again).  No doubt when the standalone version is released as a full product it will display the same speed improvements that are now incorporated into the main antivirus.

yes , the avast rootkit scan at start up after 8 minutes lasts few seconds, check the log , the same in standart and thorough scan , very good , before i had to disable it because my pc was very slow for many minutes
standalone aswar.exe beta stll lasts many minutes at high cppu occupancy as said above
