I do not want to scan it, but I tried out clamav, and accidentally, I had 
two vmware images in the path and clamav blocked by machine. It took me a
while to find out that clamav was the source of the big swap file.
I do not think that the problem is vmware related, I guess that any
file of this size maybe causes it. I will try it out after chistmas with
a file containing garbage.
