Clamav freezes often. Reading archives, seems this is not so rare
in FreeBSD.


I think the problem with ClamAV and FreeBSD is down to threads. We had a
serious problem with this, and the only solution we found was to move ClamAV
to Linux. Unfortunately under high load (a few million emails a day on
multiple FreeBSD machines) ClamAV is usable on FreeBSD. It hurts me to say
that, but it's true.

We even tried better machines, and gave Clamav more memory. That helped, but
still seeing issues.


Indeed.
