There's something totally wrong here. The very min mem usage to be expected is ~87-90 MB on 32bit linux systems and around 110-120 on 64bit. That's on startup, just after loading the db and before scanning anything. On windows the min usage is roughly 10% higher, however windows heap allocator is not prone to fragmentation, so the idle memusage will basically stay on those levels. That 20 megs figure is an absolute nonsense o.0 -acab _______________________________________________ Pkg-clamav-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-clamav-devel
