You mean that, even if I've disabled the llvm in my binary of 1MBytes : if I
load the bytecode.cvd,
my binary would be able to run the bytecodes and detect viruses with it ?

but this will be done slower ?

=> slower for all scan of files then ? and more and more slower if
bytecode.cvd size increase ? true ?
