[Clamav-users] benchmarks for a LARGE site?

[Damian Menscher]

My silly university spent $0.5M on a commercial product to perform spam 
and virus filtering (they have the "if it costs that much, it MUST be 
good" mentality).  And, just after they put it into production, Sober.P 
came out and knocked it flat.  After a couple days with multi-hour email 
delays, people are pretty pissed.  And I smell opportunity....

Could someone with a LARGE site (we have about 35,000 users) post what 
hardware they use for ClamAV, and how many messages/day it handles? 
I'd like to suggest they put it on a few PCs and have their relays 
contact the milter via a network socket in a round-robin fashion.  But 
it would be good to hear people's experiences with something on this 
large of a scale before I make the proposal.

Thanks a bunch,
Damian Menscher
