Why is avg slowing down my video game?

I dont need help with anything but today  I realized avg antivirus free is causing my game Forza Motorsport 7 to have terrible lagging. Once I uninstalled avg as told on the forza forum my game started to run full speed. This is disturbing since I have to get rid of such a nice app hopefully this gets fixed in the future.
