[clamav-users] scanning petabyte-size filesystem

At LEAST for the Windows build of ClamAV there are 2 GB file size limitations (and bugs) due to use of old 32-bit library functions:

I have not encountered the same problem with TB volumes though.

Hello,

I'm wondering if clamdscan can scan petabyte-size storage.

There're some MAXxxx settings in the /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf though, is there any limitation about filesystem size to run clamdscan ?
Or it just takes an awful lot of time and there's no programmatic limitations ?

Regards, Kazunori
