I have flagged the Ryzom directory not to be scanne (see reports above) and while it helped some, it was not a panacea. (+Kilgore) The slowdowns are not correlated in any way to disk activity, so I'm doubting that it is the pagefile, especially since System Manager shows unused RAM during play.
Sywindt - Yes, it is clear that AV is related to the problem, but it also happened with McAfee and it is a change since last spring or even since the summer.
Putting more ram into an almost 6-year-old computer is pretty much not going to happen. Max for the Motherboard and OS is 4GB..
I am continuing experimentation....
