You might want to quit the AdGuard app after you have it set up and don't allow it to auto-launch at system startup. I learned today that the AdGuard app doesn't need to be running all the time in order to block ads. See this reply: #11
 
Unless your work requires it, get rid of the anti-virus stuff.
Actually, I'd get rid of ALL of it (at least as startup items), except for AdGuard.

Does Kaspersky internet security run constantly in the background? That type of security app would be more effective if it is constantly scanning everything - which would be a waste of resources in my opinion. Either way I would remove it.. I've never run security apps on BSD-based systems and I've never seen any issues.

Remove all the apps and add them back one at a time.

After initial fascination with third party small "productive" apps on Mac years ago, I try to stay away from them now - learning and adapting to native ways of doing the same with OSX.
I'm not saying those apps are useless (some of them probably are..) but I have learned over years that most of my needs can be addressed by OSX directly - this really helps with system performance and unnecessary clutter reduction.

Having said so I am still using istat menus, turbo boost switcher .. :) - nobody is perfect

Agreed. I have even go so far as to retrain myself to use stock apps where possible.
