Hi,

Can anyone explain why clamd 0.95.3 might use 190MB of RAM after 5 days of light usage (few hundred emails)? It is the single biggest process on my mail servers, and I'm not convinced it's size is reasonably justifiable. The database files under /var/lib/clamav use about 70MB. So, even assuming this is kept in memory at all times, where does the other 120MB come from?

I have looked through various mailing list and forum archives, but have not found a reasonable answer to this question, despite it being raised a few times.

TIA.

Gordan
