Hi, I was using clamscan for daily scanning of our user's home directories, but it was getting too slow with scan times of up to 6 hours. Therefor I'm testing clamdscan and using multiple threads to scan. (cmd line is /usr/local/bin/clamdscan -m --fdpass /home)
I am getting the following error messages from clamd while scanning, and it's missing a lot of files. If put the Eicar test file at various spots and it's being missed by the scan. Thu Mar 21 22:00:01 2013 -> SelfCheck: Database status OK. Thu Mar 21 22:10:01 2013 -> SelfCheck: Database status OK.

The home directories are all zfs based. clamd runs as user clamav, clamdscan as user root. What could be causing this?
