Since configuring KlamAV to Auto-Scan my whole system, why does my computer hang and/or suffer from slow performance?
If you configure KlamAV to scan the whole filesystem, i.e. /, every single file that is accessed will be scanned, including all system files. If performance is an issue it may be prudent to restrict the real-time protection of the Auto-Scan function to your home directory and any other directories your user has access to – including those emails, user files and temporary directories that are at greatest risk of infection during general use. KlamAV can then be scheduled to regularly scan the complete filesystem at a convenient time.
