According to the man page for clamscan,
--max-space=#n
Extract first #n kilobytes from each archive. You may
give the number in megabytes in format xM or xm, where
x is a number.as well, 'clamscan --help' reports,
--max-space=#n Extract first #n kilobytes only
However, I frequently see references to --max-space with values such as 1000000 - which would be equivalent to
1,024,000,000 bytes (1000000 kilobytes, or about 1gigabyte)
is this correct? or is the description for --max-space wrong? i have resorted to using "1M" nomenclature to be sure that i'm not telling it to extract everything including gigantic attachments - but would like to limit it to an even smaller value, like 200 kilobytes - but the nomenclature doesn't match what people seem to be using in practice.
clarification would be appreciated!
