No, the backup scanner is fine. The Fedora-shipped primary scanner 
config begins with

> # This is recommended way to use clamav:
> #
> # * The use of clamd eliminates the startup time associated with loading
> #   the databases into clamscan (without the 'd').
> #
> # * The use of clamdscan eliminates the need for you to know the path to
> #   the clamd communication socket or its low-level protocol details.
> #
> # * The --fdpass option opens the files to be scanned as the amavis user,
> #   but then scans them as the clamav user. This avoids the permission
> #   problems that result when you ask clamd to scan the files itself.
> #
> # * By dropping the --fdpass option, this command is easily adapted for
> #   use with a network socket (clamd running elsewhere).

> # ### http://www.clamav.net/ and CPAN  (memory-hungry! clamd is preferred)
