-In multiscan mode several files are scanned in parallel, one for each available scan thread in clamd.
-This is achieved either via MULTISCAN or IDSESSION requests, depending on the configuration and other options.

+In the multiscan mode clamd will attempt to scan the directory contents in parallel using available threads. This option is especially useful on multiprocessor and multi-core systems. If you pass more than one file or directory in the command line, they are put in a queue and sent to clamd individually. This means, that single files are always scanned by a single thread. Similarly, clamdscan will wait for clamd to finish a directory scan (performed in multiscan mode) before sending request to scan another directory. This option can be combined with \-\-fdpass (see below).
