[Clamav-users] high load condition
My mail server has been choking under high load for about 3 months now. I have about 725 user accounts, using sendmail, imapd and horde for webmail. Top shows the load average climbing above 30. Server is a 4 gb+ memory and Dual pIII. I use clamav with procmail. Top shows clamscan in the top portion of utilization everytime. My clamav isnt logging (doesnt look like it has for sometime). I disabled clamscan in procmail and mail utilization went way down. Does anyone know how I can start troubleshooting this? I am running ClamAV 0.88.4/1742. My clamav.conf is pretty normal. I havent changed it in quite sometime though. Procmail script: # send through clamav #:0fw #| /usr/local/bin/clamassassin # quarantine if clamav found virus #:0: #* ^X-Virus-Status: Yes #/opt/viruses/clamav-viruses thanks, ddh -- Dwayne Hottinger Network Administrator Harrisonburg City Public Schools ___ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html

Try using clamdscan instead of clamscan ___ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html

Part of your problem will be that you're using clamscan, part will be that you'll be scanning the same email each time it's delivered if people are CCd. -- Please keep list traffic on the list.
