C-icap can do basic trickling yes.. I guess if you set high
virus_scan.SendPercentData it works acceptably.  The other modes are crap
that I would never want users to suffer (waiting forever and tricking
1 bytes or viralator-like download status pages..  how can wget or other
non-browser/human understand a status page? :D).

Trickling is the most visible performance feature to enduser. After that
it's just a personal choice how to set up the other stuff like maximum scan
size etc.  HAVP has some speed advantages especially with large files, but I
don't know if there's a reason to scan those.  These days you can get very
fast servers anyway so waiting few seconds to scan a large zip from start
should be less of a problem.

Cheers,
Henrik
