This problem JUST started this morning. I'd been running this version
of clamd for about a week with no problems before this. Load is higher
than usual today, but I'm not sure if that's because clamd was rejecting
mail from 5AM to 9AM and is still catching up or if we're the target
of a spam run.

Ever since what?

:) I'm a programmer (C/C++/Java/Perl/Python/etc...), but for some
reason EVERYONE seems to be telling me lately that something else is
causing the bugs I find (no, these unrelated bugs aren't on the same
machine either).

"No no, surely it can't be a bug in a <gasp> <emphasis>C</emphasis> program."
It's not like C makes it EASY to write bug free code or anything. :) Come on
guys. At least give me the benefit of the doubt here. You could *look* at C
code the wrong way and introduce a bug.

Qmail + QMAILQUEUE + custom-python-script + qmail-scanner-1.21 + clamdscan

The only really notable things about your clamav.conf compared with mine
are:

A.) You're running a TON of concurrent threads on a system that can't spread
    those threads out over multiple CPUs (FreeBSD 4.x). Why don't you reduce
    that to something reasonable and raise your MaxConnectionQueueLength?

    You'll probably save some CPU that way.

B.) You're running Clamuko and I'm not.

C.) You've set StreamMaxLength and I haven't. (company policy. Don't ask.)

D.) You've specified FixStaleSocket, which I don't use and can't find in the
    documentation. What does that do?

The StreamMaxLength and FixStaleSocket options are the most interesting to
me.
