Do whatever nmap scan you want to ahead of time, and then pass the results file in to nessus as an option for the scan. I suspect that you will only see a slight increase in performance, but you won't see the nmap plugin lag for any length of time.

I have noticed that nessus often "hangs" at the end of the nmap portion of the test for long periods of time. Is this just because its busy working its way through the 65K other ports or is there some other reason? Is there a way to get around this and still have a complete test? Thanks for an input
