On my iMac after I upgraded to version 8.x I have been unable to complete a scan. I have around 4.3 million items. What happens is the scan quits in the middle of a scan.

Changing the update interval to every 8 hours allowed a scan of my home folder to complete after 2 scans that failed mid-scan. OS X 10.8.2 and Sophos Home.
FWIW the SophosAVAgent continues after it stops updating the GUI as evidenced by Activity Monitor showing it consuming about 25% of CPU and the HD reading at about 25MB/sec, but it is no longer updating the Sophos Anti-Virus GUI.
