Quoting Jason Haar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

They apparently have used ClamAV to base their "Oyster" AV on, and claim that it runs >4 times faster as a result.
One thing that I see immediately would be if clamd could cache a checksum of a scanned file, so that if it sees that file checksum later, it doesn't have to scan it again. Obviously there would have to be timeouts/etc, but it's a good idea. Sophos does it on their Windows workstation AV too...
Just food for thought.
I majored in cs at stonybrook a couple years ago. Kinda weird to see someone post it on this list...especially from new zealand.
