Howdy list,

I'm curious about a couple of things, and I figure
asking the list might be quicker than reading the
code:

1.) Is there any situation that would cause clamd
    to load a large portion of a file it is scanning
    into RAM?

    I've been watching clamd on my mailserver, and
    it seems to hold at about a 13M memory footprint,
    but I just want to verify that there aren't
    certain attachment types that might be treated
    differently.

2.) Also, how much of a given file will clamd typically
    load into memory during the scanning process?

3.) Is this memory pre-allocated, or is it allocated
    on demand?


Thanks!
