Dear the developers of "clamav", Thanks for reading this email,
Currently, `clamscan` can only run in single thread, which is not so efficient if the user want to conduct a dedicate virus scanning without starting `clamd` service. It would be nice to travel the target directory and pass the target file path to multiple working thread/process. The order of files during scanning is not important. Some times, the users just don't want to enable `clamd` service for a single scanning and some other times, the users have no permission to start `clamd` service. Is this feature beneficial and feasible? Cheers.
