Modify the clamscan schedule in the admin gui

<< < (2/2)

purvis:
For single procesors with a single core.
It is my belief from my observations clamscan is too much of a CPU hog.
I would suggest that the nice command be used with it.
It seems the high CPU effects other services  and the operating system in a bad way when it comes to disk usage.

I only use this scan during non-production hours.  Additionally, I would only recommend using the scan during non-production hours.  I would see no reason why somebody would use an intense file by file scan for virus's during prod hours on top of other applications running in the background, IMHO.  Appreciate the advice however on using nice with the command as that might help somebody out there.
