Hello, Is there any way to reduce/control the memory use of clamd? I'm running a co-hosted VPS, so memory is at a premium. I have 256 Mb of RAM on the machine, and clamd is taking 95Mb of virtual, and has a 65Mb resident footprint! That seems excessive, to say the least! I tried compiling from source and excluding the options I don't need, but it had no noticeable effect. Are there any options that exist to get clamd running on systems with limited memory?
Is it really necessary for clamd to grab this much RAM? It seems that unless one has significant amounts of memory to devout to clamd, then it is out of reach. This is a shame, since it's such a great program!
