Kaspersky Security supports scanning several objects at the same time. The
number of objects that can be processed at the same time depends on the
number of started instances of the anti-virus kernel running simultaneously. The
mode of scanning objects in RAM allows scanning objects without saving them to
a temporary folder on the hard drive. Depending on the scan settings, the
program can simultaneously analyze up to 9 objects up to 1 MB each in the
computer's RAM without using the disk subsystem (details see section 8.1, page
72).
