Clamd process seems to be using a lot of CPU. It goes 0% for a few seconds then 100% (full use of one thread) for a few seconds constantly forever. This seems to be eating our users laptop battery noticeably

We just rolled out ClamAV to all of our users (running macOS of varying versions) using MacPorts and these instructions ( https://github.com/essandess/macOS-clamAV ) to all users who are technical enough to check CPU usage are reporting this.

Is this normal? Any way to change/fix it?
