I've been seeing excessive CPU usage from clamav_90_1 on 6.1.  (clamd
taking 60+% of the CPU)  I've somewhat stifled that by reducing the #
of postfix connections to clam and by implementing other postfix
things to reduce the ability of botnet infested hosts to be able to
get to clam in the first place.

FWIW, I didn't see this problem with earlier versions of clam.
