Question Is Outpost Pro 4 a resource hog?

The title is my question. I've been using ZoneAlarm Antispyware for some time, mainly because almost all reviews gave it high ratings and PC Mag says its antispyware is good. Well it turned out that the firewall is awesome, but the antispyware sucks-missed 4 trojans that Spy Doc found- and its a resource hog.
zclient.exe and vsmon.exe together have around 80% CPU Usage..
That's why I'm considering Outpost Pro 4. In the reviews it's always just behind ZA, and it's "the best alternative to ZA". Well I don't want to switch to find that Outpost is not any better, so if anybody know, is Outpost a resource hog too?
