clamd.conf directives

Where can I find which directives in "clamd.conf" apply to which 
components (clamd, clamdscan, clamonacc) ???

For example, "MaxFileSize" should apply to both clamdscan and clamd.  If 
clamdscan ignores this directive, it would stream every file regardless 
of size to a remote clamd only to be rejected by clamd AFTER 
"StreamMaxLength" has been reached.

Unfortunately, the documentation I have read does not specify which 
directives apply to which components.  (Yes, a very few directive 
descriptions do specify, but most do not.)

So, again, where can I find which directives in "clamd.conf" apply to 
which components (clamd, clamdscan, clamonacc) ???

I need to know this information when planning my ClamAV deployment, much 
of which will be fileserver clients using clamdscan and/or clamonacc to 
stream to a centralized clamd on the network.

Your feedback is much appreciated.

On a side note, my "MaxFileSize" example above ties back to my separate 
inquiry about "TCP socket vs. local Unix socket" and which clamd 
commands apply to which socket.
