Yes, that's a very good idea. We do the same at work for our Java, iOS
and Android projects. Those projects generate 1000's of files while
compiling etc. We know they don't contain viruses, so why let the
virus scanner scan then. On Android machines it made a massive difference
for compile speed too.
