Hi guys,
I have pretty much always used clamscan as the primary virus
scanner,
mostly because the default install of clamdscan doesn't work
(and I
never bothered to figure out why), but on my mail server
performance has
become an issue. First, I made sure spamassassin and
clamscan dump
their temp stuff on /tmp (which is a ramdrive). Then I
started fiddling
with clamd, managed to break clam completely, and installed
bdc for the
time being.
First thing I noticed is that bdc scans much faster than
clamscan. I
manged to fix clam and get clamdscan working, so I disabled
clamscan and
am now using clamdscan and bdc together. Between the two of
them they
take less than half the time that clamscan on it's own does
to scan a mail.
So I'm interested to know if anyone has, or knows of a place
where I can
obtain comparative performance figures for the available
commandline
antivirus scanners for linux. I'm thinkin of adding a third
scanner,
and this would be useful info.
Thanks
