I have noticed something similar - updating clamav database where the database
was too old (not updated for long time). Freshclam has a download timeout
(default 30 s), and if the update is not finished in that time, it tries again.
IMHO quite stupid... The update was working perfectly, it just needed to
download too much updates, that it needed about 60 s to finish.
