Hi Chris,
That should be understandable for what it is scanning. This is also affected by if there are large images in the file. My boss creates 40MB PowerPoints which takes 162 second (2.7 minutes) to scan. But remember the system is doing other things at the same time when it is scanning the document so this will vary. I have an 2GHz single processor 2GB RAM with ClamAV 0.87 using reformime but only have 30 users (excluding aliases) and have spamassassin scanning spam also.

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Frank
Hi,
I`m running Clam AV 0.87 and have noticed some poor performance when
scanning large (20Mb+) Power Point presentations. These scans can take
upwards of 3 minutes. I had similar issues with 0.86.1 but upgrading
has not resolved the problem.

I'm running Clamd with Mimedefang on a 2.4Ghz Xeon 4 processor machine
with 3Gb of RAM, running Red Hat 8.

Has anyone else experienced issues with .ppt files taking large amounts of time?

Chris Hannam
