Question
In my environment a full scan of my files and folders takes a couple of days for every scan. During this time a single CPU is busy while I have multiple cores (or CPUs). Can I improve the scan speed by doing scans in parallel?
Answer
In current releases UCS uses clamscan
which is a single threaded application and therefor can only make use of a single CPU.
Future versions might use clamscand
which can start multiple clamscan
threads in parallel and therefoee would increase overall scanning time.
