No, I don't know uvscan. Sophos Sweep has an option called "-ss"
(super-silent), that makes it produce output only when it finds
something stinky. Maybe uvscan has something similar.

The latter.

Most commandline scanners output their progress, some by printing a line
for each "file" (rather "object") they are scanning. When an archive
contains thousands of files, the output can get very long. When you view
the output on a console, it may seem to be short, since they "reset" the
line they print on with CR only.

In any case, you can try editing the #defines like I told you, it should
also help.
