We enforce rate limiting to limit how often people download the signature databases as the are quite large and so it costs us quite a bit to host them.
Unfortunately our rate limiting mechanism is not working as intended as is overzealous -- which is primarily affecting people running clamav in big public cloud environments. Our web team will be working with Cloudflare engineers to tune it to work the way we want, but I'm not sure when they'll fix it.
The best option, regardless, is if you can store the signature databases in a shared volume that you mount into your pods. This way when they start up they already have the databases, and you only need to update the databases in that volume once instead of updating copies in each pod with every start.
To be honest I use this NAS in a small home network behind a router and only NAS uses Clamav so it is not possible to generate "over" traffic to your CDN.

Could you please suggest solution ?
