Hello,

I've been using ClamAV for awhile without any issues, but after
installing PaX and grsecurity (www.grsecurity.org), I get a lot of
hung processes that take up 99.9% CPU until I manually kill them. Here
is an entry that is in my syslog:

Jun 15 08:54:45 nirvana kernel: grsec: From 66.249.92.170: denied
resource overstep by requesting 41992192 for RLIMIT_AS against limit
40000000 for /usr/bin/clamscan[clamdscan:5730] uid/euid:1010/1010
gid/egid:111/111, parent /sbin/init[init:1] uid/euid:0/0 gid/egid:0/0

According to the PaX team, they do not set any limit's:

So, I modified the source to comment out any setrlimit calls. But I
still get this issue... any idea's on how to fix it? I was gone for an
entire day, came back and saw my load at > 9.00 with 9 clamscan
processes taking up as much CPU as possible.

Thanks,
Jon
