My experience has been that McAffee's scanner is slow as a dog.
I've been asked to "fix" computers that are "running slow" because they
have been "taken over by spyware" when the real problem was that McAffee
was running and nothing else was getting done. No spyware, no nothing.
Just McAffee hogging the CPU and disk. :(

Definitely. Instructing the virus scanner to ignore the database file(s)
and/or directory(ies) will certainly help, too. MySQL generally uses
files on a regular filesystem (rather than using its own special
filesystem) which are subject to virus scanning, which will murder your
performance.

Chris,
my experience with those scanners (slowest on top):
- Symantec (Norton)
- Kaspersky
- McAffee
However, those "experiences" are based on workstations only.
I do know that at least some of those scanners do have different
enterprise soltutions.
However, I guess "experiences" may vary, so you have to measure.
Measuring only works in a defined environment, so that even if there
/were/ any benchmarks, they might not mirror the situation within
/your/ environment.
Therefore, IMHO, if Linux is not an option for some weird political
reason, I'd ask those AV-vendors to get me a version which I could
test for a month. After 3 months of tests you should know which
scanner is best for your requirements.
Coming back to the OP's problem:
For a quick solution /knowing/ that my actual scanner is the
bottleneck, I definately would give some different scanners a try and
see if that helps.
Cheers
Gregor
