They're saying you should also add this line to clamd.conf and clamd.conf.tmpl to activate this feature which will save cpu time:
HeuristicScanPrecedence yes --heuristic-scan-precedence[=yes/no(*)] Allow heuristic match to take precedence. When enabled, if a heuristic scan (such as phishingScan) detects a possible virus/phish it will stop scan immediately. Recommended, saves CPU scan-time. When disabled, virus/phish detected by heuristic scans will be reported only at the end of a scan. If an archive contains both a heuristically detected virus/phish, and a real malware, the real malware will be reported Keep this disabled if you intend to handle "*.Heuristics.*" viruses differently from "real" malware. If a non-heuristically-detected virus (signa- ture-based) is found first, the scan is interrupted immedi- ately, regardless of this config option. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/ClamAV-0.95-%2B-HAVP-0.90-for-EFW-2.2-rc3--tp22769879p23669932.html Sent from the efw-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Register Now for Creativity and Technology (CaT), June 3rd, NYC.
