Anti-Virus + firewall users - What is your memory impact?

I currently use Norton Internet Security and Norton AntiVirus (both are
the 2003 versions) under Windows XP Pro SP-1 on my home computer. They
are pigs for memory. Task Manager currently shows (I only booted about
10 minutes ago) the following memory usage:

    ccApp.exe = 14,356 KB
    ccEvtMgr.exe = 3,980 KB
    ccPxySvc.exe = 118,944 KB
    Navapsvc.exe = 996 KB
    NISum.exe = 5,800 KB

That's a whopping 144 MB. The SymEvent service uses svchost.exe and
there always multiple instances of this process so I cannot tell which
one has SymEvent rolled into it, so the actually memory consumption is 2
to 17 MB more than 144 MB.

For users of OTHER products (i.e., not Symantec) that have BOTH an
anti-virus and firewall running, what is the impact on your memory usage
for those products (and please name your products)?

Thanks.
