What you might do to get the most bang for your CPU cycle is:
1) Run clamav-milter first - this should catch most known viruses
2) Scan in MIMEDefang using some OTHER virus engine
That way if your freshclam happens to check just before an update, you still have a shot at catching new viruses (if the other virus engine updates its definitions first)
