Nope!

I don't see any reason to disable ClamAV completely. What I would definitely
would to is *not* use the command line scanner utility clamscan to scan
messages for malware. This will consume many resources any I suspect this to
be the culprit without even looking any further. We know from the amavis
mailing list and our own experience you do not want to use commandline
utilities to scan messages.

What you want is a running daemonized process that scans messages. In other
words use clamd instead of clamscan (or even clamdscan) and hook clamd into
the message delivery process using either clamav-milter, rspamd or amavis.

That's an incorrect generalization. ClamAV runs on many machines - be it bare
metal or VM - without any problems. The problem here very likely is using the
commandline scanner instead of the daemonized process.
