I'm currently using clamav 0.67, and I'm seeing clamav taking a long time 
scanning files with mostly 0xFFs.  

Normally the time it takes to scan a file is not a problem but once a while we 
receive a large mostly white picture, and instead of the usual minute or so 
to scan a file, it takes 20+ mins to scan it.   This is happening on both 
linux on intel and  solaris on sparcs.

Just as a data point, I used clamscan to scan a 1M data file with random data 
and it took 3.6 sec, but a 1M file of all 0xFF's took 21 sec.

Has anyone else seen this problem?
