Howdy-

We've recently been seeing our clamd processes run very hot (spiking up to 85% of the CPU as reported by prtstat and top) on two different Solaris 9 boxes. For example, here's a few lines from prtstat -L (showing the two clamav threads who are together eating 66% of the CPU) .

PID USERNAME  SIZE   RSS STATE  PRI NICE      TIME  CPU PROCESS/LWPID
18447 root       61M   60M run      0    0   0:27:51  34% clamd/14
18447 root       61M   60M cpu0    20    0   0:25:40  32% clamd/22

Both machines are running 0.88.2 clamds being fed by exim. We'll upgrade to 88.4 shortly,
Repeating advice already given here: the engine in 0.88 is *old*. If performance is
an issue upgrade to the code in CVS.
