After updating to XP service pack 3 from service pack 2
i was just wondering whether anyone noticed a longer time to complete hard disk drive intensive tasks such as manually launched full system anti-virus scans?
My systems rate of of work done for this type of task decreased by about 25%
there could be other factors that relate to my system only , that is why i am interested in other system owner's experiences.

Nope, i didn't find much changes in performance...works fine for me as of now...feels a bit secure as compared to SP2 :P ..lol :D
No. XP SP3 didnt make any changes to that part of the system. It was just a rollup of all the post SP2 hotfixes and updates + one new bit of networing technology and some changes to the installer.
o well, none to worry now - woke mine up with a 10k scsi drive
