I received an email today with a 14MB attachment which takes over two minutes to scan. The other scanners I have here take less than 5 seconds so I wondered if this is a problem with Clam ? Unfortunately I can't send the file to anyone due to its content, but if there's anything I can do to help debug this let me know!
Here's the output from a clamscan: buckk% (753) ptime clamscan --debug neoforums.mdb | tee debug.out LibClamAV debug: Loading databases from /opt/clamav/share/clamav LibClamAV debug: Loading /opt/clamav/share/clamav/daily.cvd LibClamAV debug: in cli_cvdload() LibClamAV debug: MD5(.tar.gz) = 37866f612124c2d3a9657ed88875d918 LibClamAV debug: Decoded signature: 37866f612124c2d3a9657ed88875d918 LibClamAV debug: Digital signature is correct.
