I wouldn't say that's the case.  ClamAV is usually as responsive as most 
commercial AV products, for example.

One thing to keep in mind when looking at an AV product for Linux:  does 
the provider actually _have_ AV signatures/heuristics for Linux?  Some 
are purely a Linux build of their Windows AV engine intended to scan for 
Windows viruses (on a fileserver, firewall, email filter, etc). 

Cheers,
Dave
