Single email account here. On average, I receive one email a day.
Devoting 1Gb memory all the time for that seems a poor bargain.

Why can't clamd let databases/signatures stay in secondary memory

Waiting for next message.
loading takes time, much time. And, they still would take about the same
memory.
Why clamd needs to have signatures/databases loaded in primary memory
all the time? Even when there is no active scan or incoming email? This
doesn't make sense.
there are many signatures, they must be parsed and understood by clamav.
The only place they can be stored at scanning time is the memory.
