-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, When I built my computer I put as much RAM as the board would allow, 8GiB. Today that is too little, but I can't add more.

The worst offender this moment is Firefox (Thunderbird is closed now). But the next is clamd (clamav, antivirus mail scanner daemon)! It is using more than LibreOffice! How can that be? It is iddle at the moment, doing nothing. What can be done to reduce its footprint? Instead of the daemon, I could call it from amavis, one process per mail. But this impacts scan speed. Could the daemon be started "on demand", and be killed a minute after the last email goes through? - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
