Thank you for getting back to me on this.

Yes, cron.weekly seems to run at 6:47 and the freshclam update every
other hour at :46 ...

I'll try the delaycompress option. Do you know if there's anything I
can do to fix the root cause, i.e. the two cron jobs running so close
together? It's a server that runs 24/7, there's plenty of time for
them to get out of each other's hair.
