Compile times for a fairly sizable Visual Studio project. I intended to use it as the baseline for what a good, light solution should offer, since it didn't (at least at the time) have a viable centralized management solution. NOD32 had a reputation for being extremely light on system resources, so you can imagine my surprise when it turned in very middling results. Symantec was better, and Sophos turned in the best result by a good margin. NOD32 might be light on memory and/or CPU, but that doesn't seem to translate to performance impact.
