One way you *could* get an older .cvd file is to extract it from the
relevant ClamAV package available on many different linux distro's. Be
sure to disable freshclam though (obviously).
Thanks for the suggestion; I was able to get some older signatures from
some older rpm packages e.g. https://pkgs.org/download/clamav-db
However, these were mostly main.cvd and so old that comparisons weren't all
that useful unfortunately.
I don't think the main apt-based distros have included signatures in their
packages for quite some time AFAICS.

We have a large number of old daily.cvd and daily.cld accumulated over
the past several years. I have kept them in case an update caused a
problem and I had to go back to make ClamAV work until the next update.
(I really should delete most of them!)
Given some dates, I could upload a few to our Website and provide URLs.

Thanks for the offer, that would be great. Ideally perhaps it'd be useful
to see daily signatures from something like:
* end of Dec 2017 / start of Jan 2018
* end of Mar / start of Apr 2018
* end of Jun / start of Jul 2018
* end of Sep / start of Oct 2018
* end of Dec 2018 / start of Jan 2019
* end of Mar / start of Apr 2019
Any samples covering roughly that period would be useful; doesn't have to
be these specific dates / intervals.
Very much appreciate if you could share links to these, thanks again.
just a few notes:
- newer clamav could be faster with new virus DB
- clamdscan should be faster than clamscan (note the 'd' in clam'd'scan)
because it doesn't have to load whole virus database every time you execude
it.
