I remember something about problems with clamdtop that caused -lmalloc to be needlessly added. My git log contains this: " Fix Solaris memory usage: don't link with -lmalloc on Solaris (bb #1595, thanks to David Schweikert <david*schweikert.ch> for tracking down the problem)." So it looks like -lmalloc was actually causing problems, and linking without it fixes it. > but I > think I was trying to improve clamscan signature load times when the > number of Sane Security signatures grew large. > > I wonder what causes it to fail now? It is using more memory with -lmalloc? It is hitting another codepath in libclamav that was never tested? I don't know, I opened a bug (# 2042), and will investigate when I have time.
