I will have a patch out by next week to handle warning of permission errors.
If you were using clamavmodule then I would think there wouldn't be much
difference (except possibly larger batches were the threading and handling
entire directorys at once would help), the biggest difference (from
clamavmodule) would be the memory consumption (significant). Now the load
difference between clamscan and clamd is pretty large.
