Been there, done that -- but three issues:
1) You have to mod mimedefang.pl to find the files in the
correct location.
2) Only provide performance improvements where virus scanners
have to reread files for every scan (e.g., helps with
uvscan, no help for clamd/clamdscan).
3) You have to provide scripts that update both the RAMDISK
and master copies of the sigs, plus load the sigs when
system startup occurs.
