Regexes can be slow or even extremely slow to apply, depending on the implementation. Backtracking is the worst, perhaps taking exponential time, but often is cut off by artificial limits. Does ClamAV perchance precompute Deterministic Finite Automata for the regexes? These run fast, but take

Given that the PhishTank signatures, specifically, have been causing the performance issues, no. It's not unreasonable to want to pull them, and only them, out. Having them in a separate db file would be highly beneficial to those of us that don't want or need them at all. Barring that, having a
