daily-26155 puts me on cool down again

then freshclam try to get daily.cvd, and this is the overload for 
claudflare ?

maybe freshclam should not failback to download cvd ?, eg let missing 
cdiff be tempfails until all diff is on cloadflare ?

its currently brokken

again consider torrent protocol in freshclamd, with scales much more 
then cloudflare ever can

windows defender works, with end user share data to microsoft, why cant 
freshclamd not learn from it ?
