SmadAV use the thousands of API functions, little VB functions, making it much faster scanning. The average speed of scanning is 100 files per second. SmadAV only open-source for version 1.7 and 2.3. Release SmadAV division, namely:
Small Revision: rev. So rev 8.0.0 8.0.1 (revised periodically in a matter of days)
Ordinary Revision: rev. So rev 8.0. 8.1 (typically 2 weeks)

We usually test the beta version of the first in the Forum SmadAV, so if there are user forums that find bugs or disagree with a particular feature, of course SmadAV be repaired again. So it does not really end-user that we made in place SmadAV test. Sure we may not find all the bugs currently in beta testing Smadav forum, so do not rule out that there are still bugs in the release version SmadAV.
We do not prevent anyone who wants to criticize Smadav, because Smadav very open and still needs a lot of improvement. Also note that the program is not Smadav commercial / profit, SmadAV made for research and application of science Computer Science. So there is no reason to put the interests of our more self / group rather than the application of the science of Computer Science itself. We are more dedicated to the application Smadav Computer Science and scientific research in Indonesia.
