Yes. Nothing fancy, though; just a 'quick-and-dirty' Perl job.

Yes. Testing this over NFS, or something, would serve no purpose.

Well, I attached the test script. Like I said, I ran 5 concurrent
instances of this script, just to see how ClamAV would handle threads
(or whether it would buckle, even).

This test was typical for my machine, where there may be a sudden spike
in connections (from the news queue-runner, for instance, or SMTP).
