In which NR> cases,find would not work? Sorry, I misunderstood. clamscan and clamdscan can be used in combination with the find command. For example, you can use the find command to identify recently modified files, and then pipe the output to clamscan or clamdscan to scan only the modified files. This method can greatly reduce the scanning time, I think.
