My problem isn't so much that it takes a while to load the signatures, but that clamd (and thus the mail server) is effectively down the entire time. Assuming clamd has a list of signatures in memory, why not just read the sigs from disk one-at-a-time, and update the in-memory list atomically? _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
