Dear the developers of "clamav",
Thanks for reading this email,
Currently, `clamscan` can only run in single thread, which is not so efficient if the user want to conduct a dedicate virus scanning without starting `clamd` service.
It would be nice to travel the target directory and pass the target file path to multiple working thread/process.
The order of files during scanning is not important.
Some times, the users just don't want to enable `clamd` service for a single scanning and some other times, the users have no permission to start `clamd` service.
Is this feature beneficial and feasible?
Cheers.
