running parallel scans

Post by LuisMiguel »

Hello,
I think will be handy to run some scans in parallel, maybe passing an option to the desire scan like:
<jrtscan> 1 when you want to be launch next scan in parallel

Regards.

EDIT: through the internal script I have achieved the desire funcionality.

Just curious.... What scans would you want to run in parallel? Maybe it's something I had not thought of before :)

It is not "Can it be done?" but rather, "How can we do it?"

sas, mbam, adw, can run in parallel without problems, or serialized with pauses between scans, its a huge time saver.

Hello LuisMiguel. Welcome, and sorry for not having replied earlier. It's been a long week.

I see what you mean. It's probably less "time saver" than you might think, because running the scans in parallel would slow down each scan, and in highly infected or low performance systems, it could even make them crash.

However, I will look into it, and add a switch as you requested.
One thing we humans have in common is that we are all different. So, if you think you're weird because you're different from everyone else, then we are all weird.
