Title: ClamAV scan - Does it take so long for everyone else?
Post by: haymann on October 03, 2006, 11:08:17 PM

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------

Scanned files: 196579
Infected files: 0
Data scanned: 27349.12 MB

Does that seem like a reasonable time? It seems like it is pretty slow to me...

I'm getting the same rates as you.  It is a long time, but it seems that's normal.  There was some discussion on the clamAV user list recently and the advice was that clam is slower than, say, norton because clam does a byte-by-byte analysis of the entire file.
Faster cpu machines don't take so long :-)
HTH, David.

Here it takes one 3.4GHz CPU over 5 days to complete the scan...

Thanks! The long time and the HUGE emails that I get from Clam made me wonder if something was wrong... I appreciate all of you input!
