Error "events table full" when running clamscan in Win 11 - important? #1402

Description

@jtabox

Hi,

When I run clamscan.exe (I don't have the daemon running) it spams the terminal (20-30 lines) with the following:

LibClamAV Error: sigperf_events_init: events table full. Increase MAX_TRACKED_BC

Afterwards it continues running seemingly normally:

Loading:    11s, ETA:   0s [========================>]    8.70M/8.70M sigs
Compiling:   2s, ETA:   0s [========================>]       41/41 tasks
...

I'm running version 1.4.1/27451/Thu Nov 7 10:32:19 2024 in Windows 11 Pro.
At first I thought MAX_TRACKED_BC is an environment variable, but apparently it's referred in some ancient text in a language way too complex for my mind to grasp:

#define MAX_TRACKED_BC 64

Is this some error way too important for me to ignore? I mean clamscan seems to be working fine after the error messages (though I still haven't tested it enough).
