+### Antivirus Workers
+
+The number of concurrent scans can be increased by setting `ANTIVIRUS_WORKERS`. Be aware that this will also increase memory usage.

 ### Infected File Handling

 ### Scaling in Kubernetes
 
-In kubernetes `ANTIVIRUS_WORKERS` and `ANTIVIRUS_MAX_SCAN_SIZE` can be used to trigger the horizontal pod autoscaler by requesting a memory size that is below `ANTIVIRUS_MAX_SCAN_SIZE`. Keep in mind that `ANTIVIRUS_MAX_SCAN_SIZE` amount of memory might be held by `ANTIVIRUS_WORKERS` number of go routines.
