Hi Starting July 25th we've seen the time taken to complete a scan of our system double, jumping from 15 hours up to 34. We haven't changed the system's configuration, and the number of files scanned and total size has remained relatively constant. The increase in scan time correlates with an update of the daily database from version 27709 to 27710. Jul 25 11:48:19 docker: clamscan: daily.cld updated (version: 27710, sigs: 2086672, f-level: 90, builder: raynman) Is it possible that this new version of the daily database is causing our increased scan time, and/or has anyone else seen a similar increase to their scan duration recently? Thanks! -daniel _______________________________________________ Manage your clamav-users mailing list subscription / unsubscribe: https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/Cisco-Talos/clamav-documentation https://docs.clamav.net/#mailing-lists-and-chat
