Dear Christian,
It's normal that scanning with clamdscan takes a shorter time than
clamscan because the virus databases is already loaded (since it's a
daemon) and ready for action. For testing purposes(debugging, etc) you
can use clamscan for all other purposes use clamdscan where you don't
need to wait to load the virus database on each run.

Hi altogether,
I´ve got a question regarding clamscan vs clamdscan.
My system is Linux/BodhiLinux 5.1.0 in a VM.
As antivirus-software I installed clamav:
_sudo apt-get install clamav clamav-freshclam_
Scanning procedure is good although a bit slow. So in addition to that I
installed the service clamd:
_sudo apt-get install clamav-daemon_
Scanning is much faster now.
My question is: Is it alright to have clamav and clamav-daemon installed
alongside each other?
So that I can run either "clamscan somefile" or "clamdscan somefile"?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Greetings.
Rosika
