What exactly do you mean by reload ? The fact is that I can't browse anymore since the selfcheck. It happens almost every hour and lasts between 3 and up to 8 minutes. If I do a force-reload manually (I don't know if it's the same operation) :
# time /etc/init.d/clamav-daemon force-reload Stopping ClamAV daemon: clamd Waiting . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Starting ClamAV daemon: clamd . real 4m40.967s user 0m12.533s sys 2m3.960s If the operation which takes time is freeing the database, is there a way to make it faster ?
