Hi, I recently upgraded from 0.80 to 0.83. I have seen a dramatic increase in CPU usage. Running inside of amavisd-new, my five amavis servers hog the CPU with around 20% each and up to 50% or more for one server process when the others are idling. Word had it that there was a "Digest bug" in 0.83 on the amavis list, and that current CVS had a fix. I just tried installing the newest snapshot, and there was no change, so I rolled back to 0.80 and things are back to normal.
I looked over the clamav list archives for the last two months, but must have missed relevant threads...? Fedore Core 2, amavisd-new 2.2.1, avg 45msg/min, spikes to 250msg/min, 0.80 CPU usage averages no more than 10% (often half that) per amavis server process. This is a production environment, but I can steal a minute to grab debug output if needed (if I can figure out how...:)) TIA! __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
