The results of the scanner (file discovery activities) will show up in the Activity Explorer (not the Content explorer). In the Activity Explorer you can see which files are discovered and which SITs were discovered in the files. If you configure the scanner for it, it will also show you which source values contributed to what SIT.

I would stress the importance on testing throughput of scanning as well, the SQL aspects required in order for the scanner to log its data. There is also the limitations of using Activity explorer to get the data insights back, export of only 30k items so the use of O365 management API, or Sentinel then using KQL can be great ways to get a full view also. I would also raise the fact that when a file is read it locks it, length really depends on amount of text within the scanner needs to look at (only ever seen this once but end users did raise concerns albeit limited).
