What is important is how many file descriptors the user clamav runs as
has. For example number of open files (-n) on a Fedora box defaults to
1024, which may not be enough.
You may want to also probe clamd when it is running to see how many/why
it needs so many files open (command-line examples below).
We have started restarting clamd every 3 hours. This is with 0.67, we
find that to be a reasonable solution.
