As part of the clamav
package, freshclam runs at boot time to download new virus signatures. This slows down booting of the computer considerably.
To my dismay systemd-analyze critical-chain
tells me my boot time is prolonged by wait-for-network-online.service
(?) of 10-25 sec because clamav-freshclam.service
needs to run after network-online.target
and before multiuser.target
.
How does one update virus signatures in a way that doesn’t slow down boot?
