Re: [Clamav-users] Unix socket vs IP Socket
Ideally, it should be faster if using only the unix socket, but there is this in clamdscan/client.c: /* #define ENABLE_FD_PASSINGFIXME: Doesn't work yet */ But since it's passing the file stream, should not be possible to scan all files, regardless of the file permission, with clamdscan? But this is not the case: with clamdscan it is possible to scan only file seen by clamd. ___ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
[Clamav-users] 0.92 and memory usage
I just upgraded my servers after a little testing: 0.92 seems to be about 20% faster than 0.91.2 and about 15% faster than 0.92rc2. The initial memory usage seems to be a little improved also (from 36m to 35m). Remains, however, the problem of icreased memory usage after DB reload: This is my "top" output after launching clamd but before DB reload: 16100 vscan 9 0 36484 35m 1080 S 0.0 1.8 0:02.90 clamd 16408 vscan 9 0 36484 35m 1080 S 0.0 1.8 0:00.02 clamd After bout 1800s there is the DB self checking (note that I'm also using sanesecurity signatures so the over 190k signatures): Tue Dec 18 17:18:37 2007 -> No stats for Database check - forcing reload Tue Dec 18 17:18:37 2007 -> Reading databases from /usr/local/share/clamav Tue Dec 18 17:18:39 2007 -> Database correctly reloaded (190744 signatures) And this is the "top" output just a second after the DB reload: 16100 vscan 9 0 70408 68m 1088 S 0.0 3.4 0:05.05 clamd 16408 vscan 8 0 70408 68m 1088 S 0.0 3.4 0:00.02 clamd ___ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
Re: [Clamav-users] Mailscanner doesn't work with 0.92 due to libclamav incompatibility
Newer release of Mailscanner lets you connect directly to clamd, which does not have this problem and should also use less memory. If in doubt ask to Mailscanner mailing list.
