Hi,

I looked in the archives and saw that Will Saxon reported an issue with scans taking too long. I am administering a small site where I have similar issues. My system:

AMD Athlon 64 3200+
1GB RAM
netqmail with realrcptto, syncdir, mfcheck, qregex patches
clamav 0.84-2.sarge.6
qmail-scanner-queue.pl 1.25
dspam-3.4.9
about 10 users

Large mails apparently take a long time to finish scanning, and some appear never to finish. Here was my system today, after I logged in for the first time in about a week:

09:55:17 up 11 days, 20:01, 3 users, load average: 87.08, 86.94, 86.82


That is bad, very bad.

Are you using clamd (daemon version)? If you are using clamscan as a comand line client it has to load in ram all the viruses definitions every time it is invoked...

Regards

Salvatore
