If you're using SAV8, you can throttle the CPU utilization to low.

Real-time scanning is turned off.=20

How is it configured?  If configured to scan all files that are accessed =
it will utilize a considerable amount of resources.  We use nave and have
configured it to only scan the local drives (exclude all LAN drives) and
only scan when a file is written to (changed or created). (page file is =
also
excluded)

Our file servers are configured the same way and since user basically can
only write to their profiles and LAN drives, NAV has little scanning to
perform and thus uses much less resources.

With 75 test users logged in, TaskMan indicated that rtvscan.exe was using =
=3D 5-8% of the four processors. When I stop just the NAV service, processor
= =3D utilization drops 20-25%!=3D20 I need suggestions.
Thanks,
