Hi,

I'm testing clamd from CVS as of 2004-03-04
under Solaris 7 on Sparc with the following
basic config:

# clamav.conf
LogFile /var/adm/clamav/clamd.log
LogFileMaxSize 10M
LogTime
PidFile /var/adm/clamav/clamd.pid
TCPSocket 3310
TCPAddr 127.0.0.1
StreamSaveToDisk
StreamMaxLength 30M
MaxThreads 10
MaxDirectoryRecursion 15
User clamav
AllowSupplementaryGroups
ScanOLE2
#ScanMail
ScanArchive
ArchiveMaxFileSize 30M
ArchiveMaxRecursion 5
ArchiveMaxFiles 1000
ArchiveMaxCompressionRatio 200
ArchiveDetectEncrypted

clamd seems pretty stable, unless the
ScanMail option is enabled. If I
turn ScanMail on, clamd eventually
goes wild and consumes huge amounts of
CPU cycles indefinitely. My current fix
is to restart clamd.

Is ScanMail known to be unstable?

I'm searching for similar experiences.
Please share your thoughts.

I have gone back to devel-20040209 which does not have that problem. Something was changed shortly after that snapshot that causes the problem. I have tried a number of versions since then and all lock up the cpu. I am putting in a bit of time to try and find the specific change that causes it but haven't succeeded so far.
