Hi All,
We run ClamAV 0.88.4 under FreeBSD - we just recently moved from 0.88.1 (a
little old) to 0.88.4, and have noticed that the memory consumption of the
clamd process has gone through the roof.
I saw a couple of fairly recent posts on a similar thread - so we've got
fairly 'lax' process limits for clamd - but it's eating over 600Mb after
only running a few days.
The machine only has 1Gb of RAM - it was fine before (always had a good
couple of hundred megs free for cache etc.) - now it's flirting with death
by swap :(
We only use the clamav-milter - I know in the past it's been recommended to
run the milter with clamd over a local socket/connection (i.e. not to get
the milter to use the library direct) - is this still the case?
Would this buy us anything? (i.e. by not having to have the gargantuan
clamd process kicking around?)
Thanks,
-Karl
