I am having a slight problem which appears to have stemmed from swapping from 
tcp sockets to unix sockets. Every now and again, and across 5 identical 
servers, i get a huge number of clamdscan processes, which prevents qmail 
accepting smtp connections. I made the total random assumption that clamav 
has a problem tearing down unix sockets under load.
However, I would like to be able to prove this so I am looking for someone to 
give some pointer as to where to start looking. 
I would like to use unix sockets as I understand that there is not as much 
overhead compared to tcp sockets, but this issue is causing me a bit of 
problem.

any help would be appreciated.
