As a data point, my staff mail server handles over 60,000 messages a
day, and it's using exiscan for a daemon AV scanner, the regexp scanner
and also the painfully slow spamd scanner (over 3 seconds per message).
I'm not seeing the problem, unless my find_exim_bogons script is broken
with exim4:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Find orphaned data spool files, which have no corresponding envelope
# files.
#
# Requires a POSIX shell.
#
# Not recommended on hosts with very large Exim queues.
#
spool=/var/spool/exim/input
for i in `find ${spool} -name '*-D'`; do
dir=${i%/*}
fnm=${i##*/}
mid=${fnm%-D}
if [ ! -e ${dir}/${mid}-H ]; then
# Confirm that the envelope file still exists to close a
# race condition that could result in false hits.
#
if [ -e ${dir}/${mid}-D ]; then
echo $mid

Ciao,
