Improved implementation of ASLR and other core security features boosts security regardless of which AV you are using.Wizzerzak said:

I'm sorry, but I don't get what your actual complaint is. You've just inferred it so far, never actually stated it.Mazor said:
That's an honest question.
You asked why I trusted those benchmarks over others, but the ones you provided show the same sort of trend, that windows 7 is faster than vista in many cases, but for things normal people would be doing the differences are either negligible (like a 2% FPS increase in a game), or non-concrete (in some games vista's slightly faster, in some 7 is faster).
That's why I'm asking you to clarify, because I thought your complaint was that the benchmarks were totally wrong, but the ones you gave show the same sort of trend.

You've already understood what I was asking correctly, but you took Windows 7 into the equation instead of XP.Rydian said:
Well, this is getting unnecessary.
Your first source links to your third which doesn't show the actual benchmarks, so I'm only talking about the second link. As I said it shows the same sort of thing as my source. The intro to it even states that service pack 2 for vista fixed the disk speed issues (which you could see were totally unbalanced in the NAS portion of the benchmarks I gave), so both sources are familiar with the OSes involved.
If you're concerned that the differences vary, the fact that both sets were done on different hardware might account for it (especially the gaming benchmarks, which are the focus here).
If you have an actual concern about some of the numbers of tests, please name them. So far you've only been talking general, and in general our tests show the same sort of thing, that the performance differences very depending on what's being done, and can range in both directions. The "performance difference" columns in your source are plain as day, for one game XP to 7 it's +8%, then for another it's -11%. Check the other column (Vista to 7) and it's the same sort of deal, it ranges between positive and negative depending on the game run, and for one the difference isn't even a third of a percent (0.1FPS).
If you check out this page of what I linked, you'll notice the performance discrepancies vary as well, both with the game played and the hardware it's played on (which is different in both sets of benchmarks).
