Maybe. I'm a perl fanatic myself, but even I would guess that a deamon written in C might scan faster then a perl module. I don't have any hard numbers, so I defer to others experience.

initialize_virus_scanner_routines() defines a certain order of scanners, with File::Scan being first. For people who run ClamAV, it might be slightly more efficient to list clamd first before File::Scan, and the impact to non-ClamAV users would be zero. Thoughts?
Since File::Scan is already loaded by MIMEDefang, it runs without having to call an external program. Without having any actual stats at hand, it seems reasonable to conclude that you get a lot of bang for the buck by having File::Scan make the first pass.
