I would suggest that you either use clamdscan or clamavmodule. The time
required for clamscan to load virus signatures (100 thousand or so) is
enough (20-something seconds on my system) to justify the choice.

It would probably be helpful if you also check which part of your system
is heavily-loaded at that time. e.g. Does clamd consume 100% CPU usage,
or disk I/O is very heavy, etc.
