Googling feisty clamav performance
shows several new hits like:
http://lurker.clamav.net/message/20070419.164705.e5fad15c.en.html
witch describes this issue
en mentiones recent patches
Although i am a user and not an expert:
Looks like something in clamav itself / not in the way ubuntu did its thing
Looks like ubuntu clamav = unpatched latest = worst
Looks like compiled clamav is faster: may be already patched
