Clamav replacement for FreeBSD+postfix?

[Arie Kachler]

We have 4 large servers doing spam/virus filtering as the inbound mail 
exchangers for several thousand domains.
These are 6.x servers with multiple processors and 2GB or RAM each.
We receive about 1-2 million emails per day.
Our setup is Sendmail + Mimedefang + Spamassassin + Clamd.
We have no load problems at all. We are probably overbuilt, but it's 
important to have extra capacity when using Spamassassin.
Clamd does not cause any overload.
Note that we have Clam 0.8x. I have recently heard that Clam 0.90 does 
have load issues.
