AV-Comparatives has completed testing of Kingsoft Internet Security 9 Plus for their Performance Test in December 2009. The focus of this test was on the system performance impact of the real-time on-access components of the security software. The complete results can be found here.
The test was performed on a clean Windows XP Professional SP3 system with defragmented disks. They repeated each test several times and averaged the results. In several cases they ran the test and then ran the same test again, to handle programs that learn and therefore run more quickly after the first time.
Here are the performance results opening files:
