Yep the common factor in this thread isn't a specific virus scanner, but the operating system the scanner is running on. I've never tried to run a virus scan on any of my Macs (haven't ever perceived a need to) but I do periodically run virus scans on my Linux servers and workstations and have never noticed any performance problems. Never found any virus infections, either. I know, apples to oranges.
