Apologies for cross posting. This question is about Exim and clamd. Specifically, how can we deal with a clam daemon that’s unresponsive (for five minutes) while updating rules. The obvious thing would be to wait a bit longer rather than time out, but I can’t see a control for that. I have some

The system is a VIA PC3500G Motherboard with an onboard VIA Esther processor 1500MHz. So, indeed, nothing special or heavy, I know, although it's dedicated:-) . Scanning is not the bottleneck, reloading the database is. Before this server I had a much slower system with a VIA C3 processor and 512

It seems to be the elephant in the room, but the root cause of your problem is you have a resource-constrained system. You don't have enough RAM or CPU to do what you want. I had the same problem with older Solaris systems running SPARC processors and no amount of cleverness on my part helped.

Well, I agree my hardware isn't rather stunning and doesn't help to (dramatically) reduce the time it takes for clamav to reload the database. I will draw my conclusion and start to drop the 3rd party sigs. But no matter how much I can narrow down the problem of the reload time, and now I come
