A fair while back, .53ish i think, I tried clamd daemonized on a reasonably large scale server (300,000 message per day). It would last about half a day before crashing. As for .70 currently I'm only running it daemonized with daemontools on a few small scale servers and have had no issues with it there. I'll be taking my production virusscanning boxes to clamd w/ daemontools soon I think. I've heard some good things about using monit with clamd. Here's two good mailing list archive entries I was able to find for it, http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg04568.html && and the explanation http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg04574.html .

Thank you,

Bu I see no evidence that clamd leaks - doeas anyone else?

If clamd was hitting the softlimits then yes, clamd might affected but the system as a whole would not be. Where as if it was just run without supervision then clamd's leaks would continue to grow without bound until blammo, the system crashes, much as it is in this case.

Do you run clamd under daemontools? (as a supervise script). If so, stop it.
Run it as a rc-script instead. I have found and heard of so many problems
with memory leaks/etc that make clamd under daemontools a very bad idea.





Why do you think that an rc script will be different to daemontools?


If there is an fd problem there is an fd problem - how clamd is started won't change that.


If you start clamd under daemontools with softlimits, it would be
affected. - Jon
