6.6.1 New AV Limits Real-Time Scan to Files Smaller than 5MB?
Was checking into something else and stumbled across this small admission in the journalctl output...
Jan 20 03:46:47 hostname clamd[11846]: ScanOnAccess: Max file size limited to 5242880 bytes
It's seriously configured not to scan files larger than approx 5MB?

Hi btaroli,
Let me inquire about that.

The config suggests the limit is 50MB per file.

Yep, I see that too.
MaxFileSize 50M
Sadly, a check of journalctl suggests my logs only go back to 24-JAN now, so I can't pull that entry out again. I do see a troubling set of messages from 24-JAN about /tmp being out of space.
