Memory Leak on 10.8.1

Using version 8.0.6C on mac os 10.8.1 and it just CHEWS AWAY at the memory!! I have 16GB of RAM and I quit all my apps except for Sophos. I took a screen recording as well which shows how a full computer scan just keeps chewing up the RAM and when stopped the RAM isn't released (still shows up as INACTIVE). 

Horrible stuff. The shocking part was the first time I opened up ACtivity Monitor (after realising something was wrong as the computer slowed down to a crawl) -- NO RAM LEFT!!

Anybody else seeing this HUGE leak?

  • Hi,

    do have ClamXav installed before you had SAV installed?

    Than uninstall ClamXav with the Engine uninstaller.

    And load SAV again to install SAV.

    I had also installed ClamXav with the Engine but i didnt use Sentry.

    The Engine from ClamXAV cant work with SAV on the same 

    Machine, you must complete uninstall ClamXav.

    When both are on the Machine grow the Interprocess to 50 %

    and higher.

    If you want use ClamXav take it from the AppStore.
