Hardware acceleration

ClamAV 0.90 comes with support for Sensory Networks' NodalCore acceleration technology. Thanks to specialized Security Processing Unit built into NodalCore C-Series accelerators it is possible to achieve more performance than is possible by just adding general purpose CPUs. Additionally, Sensory Networks' CorePAKT technology ensures that compiled signature databases occupy a memory footprint smaller than any other competing technology on the market - in many cases by up to 90%. The ability to store multiple databases in compressed format whilst still achieving high throughputs makes NodalCore ideal for applications demanding high performance on large signature databases such as ClamAV.
