[clamav-users] Scanner memory and CPU usage

[Shobana Narayanaswamy]

Is there a way to reduce the memory footprint of the scanner? It 
appears to take about 220M in memory to load the virus db.

Also, it takes up all of the machine's CPU while running. Is there a 
way to limit this (probably a general question and not specific to 
the scanner).
