Laugh all you want, but these days it is so much more efficient then it was.  The old version you would finish a whole degree at uni before a program in windows loaded up, latest version is like drinking a cup of coffee lol. 

Getting rid of it was the first thing I would do  now days I don't bother as haven't had it annoy me. 

I have no doubt it's more efficient than it was before but having continuously dealing with people who have Norton as a part of my job in IT, it's still terrible. Just how terrible it is depends on the type of computer it's on as the faster the computer, then less you will notice it. It even has a ton of false positives.

These days, it's better to just use Windows Defender and once in a while, scan your system using MalwareBytes. Both are free solutions that will give you much better performance while giving you equivalent if not better protection.
