I don't understand the difference between the first run vs the second. Please note that that clamdscan uses the daemon for scanning which *may* cache the last result. A fresh started daemon: |$ clamdscan zbsm.zip |/home/bigeasy/zbsm.zip: Heuristics.Zip.OverlappingFiles FOUND | |----------- SCAN SUMMARY ----------- |Infected files: 1 |Time: 119.048 sec (1 m 59 s) |$ clamdscan zbsm.zip |/home/bigeasy/zbsm.zip: Heuristics.Zip.OverlappingFiles FOUND | |----------- SCAN SUMMARY ----------- |Infected files: 1 |Time: 0.367 sec (0 m 0 s) So the first scan was *really* performed, the second one used the previous result. The odd-part is "OK" vs "FOUND" for the daemon and I can't pin point the 51secs. > * zbxl.zip > > clamdscan returns OK for zbxl.zip after 0.000 sec. clamscan needs more than > one minute.

It says "Data scanned: 0.00 MB" which means it didn't do anything. My guess is that your file limit is 25MiB while the file is ~40MiB. That time here is just load the database. Take a look at this: |$ clamscan --max-filesize 50M zbxl.zip |zbxl.zip: OK | |----------- SCAN SUMMARY ----------- |Known viruses: 6354861 |Engine version: 0.101.4 |Scanned directories: 0 |Scanned files: 1 |Infected files: 0 |Data scanned: 44.16 MB |Data read: 43.75 MB (ratio 1.01:1) |Time: 34.947 sec (0 m 34 s) |$ clamscan zbxl.zip |zbxl.zip: OK "Data scanned" > 0. |----------- SCAN SUMMARY ----------- |Known viruses: 6354861 |Engine version: 0.101.4 |Scanned directories: 0 |Scanned files: 1 |Infected files: 0 |Data scanned: 0.00 MB |Data read: 43.75 MB (ratio 0.00:1) |Time: 28.061 sec (0 m 28 s) "Data scanned" == 0 so ~28secs to load the data base. |$ clamscan /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf |/etc/ssl/openssl.cnf: OK | |----------- SCAN SUMMARY ----------- |Known viruses: 6354861 |Engine version: 0.101.4 |Scanned directories: 0 |Scanned files: 1 |Infected files: 0 |Data scanned: 0.02 MB |Data read: 0.01 MB (ratio 2.00:1) |Time: 28.566 sec (0 m 28 s) Here it scanned something and you see the time it needed is almost the same as in the previous example where it did just load its database. So far I don't see anything wrong. > cheers, > Hugo Sebastian
