Hello; 

Running for 525 minutes at >90% CPU seems not good.  Causes noticeable delay in command line activity for all users.

We've got this cronjob:

30 1 * * * /usr/bin/freshclam 2>&1 && /usr/bin/clamscan -o -i -r --quiet / | mail -s "Clam AV Scan Results for $(hostname -s)" itdept@domain.com

on this Linux:

Clamscan appeared as the busiest process in top, 8 hours after launch:
