slow and uses much of RAM, I have disabled it by unsetting 
@av_scanners_backup

in my local config file.

at least in debian, amavis contacts clamd directly, not by using clamdscan:

  ['ClamAV-clamd',
    \&ask_daemon, ["CONTSCAN {}\n", "/var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl"],
    qr/\bOK$/m, qr/\bFOUND$/m,
    qr/^.*?: (?!Infected Archive)(.*) FOUND$/m ],

in debian, you must add clamav to amavis group, so clamd is able to read 
mails unpacked by amavis.

perhaps redhat-based systems have similar requirement.
