Thank you for your answer. Trying to be more forthcoming I can explain the code I'm making.
- I get the full list of files under c:\windows\system32 folder, just files, not folders (4913 files in my case). - I send every file name to clamd using the SCAN command. The whole process takes almost 5 minutes, and I'm trying to drastically reduce that time. The problems I have are: - I cannot use MULTISCAN command, if I send the command MULTISCAN c:\windows\system32 everything will be scanned including folders. - I cannot use MULTISCAN command under a clamd session, clamd does not allow it (with this option I could send every filename using MULTISCAN command under a session) - SCAN is not multithread and this is the reason for the 5 required minutes Possible solutions are: - Non recursive MULTISCAN ( seems that this is not available ) - Multithread SCAN command ( seems that is not available ) Is there another solution here? Thank you very much! El vie, 4 mar 2022 a las 15:53, G.W.
