The Optimise File Scans option: Optimise file scans to run much faster
The Optimise File Scans option is a part of the Scans & Integrity Zone. The setting can be found under the Scan Options and is enabled by default.
Significant optimisation in file scanning with reduction of full file scan times by up to 66%. For example, if a file scan would have normally lasted for 3 minutes, it'll now take less than 1 minute. This means that, when you use the Optimise File Scans option, you'll get faster scanning, less waiting, and much lighter load on your servers by using fewer resources.
Important: If you experience any errors in your logs or strange scanning behaviour, disable this option.
