Hello. Well first I valgrinded clamd to see if any memory leak was detected. To my knowledge it seems not. Then I googled on this behaviour and found lots of people complaining of ram footprint of clamd. In fact this behaviour seems linked to the necessity of loading all virus database in ram for performance purpose.
So there are no workaround except what you suggest. I'll try to see if MemoryLimit is an accepted parameter for clamd. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1907312 Title: clamd takes 7% of ram To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/clamav/+bug/1907312/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
