Many people have reported problems with AVG anti-virus program causing slowdowns and I am sure some of the others will too.
You do need to keep in mind there is a whole lot more to Hoster 4.XX than 3.321 had. Many new features have been added and require initialization before the program is ready to use. Version 3.321 installer was 14MB and 4.09d installer is up to 18MB. That is a big difference in what is contained in the program. All that additional program means Hoster is going to take a bit longer to get set up.
Another thing you can do is to defragment your hard drives. This will usually help with the speed. The more fragmentation the longer it takes to transfer from the drive to the memory.
