[clamav-users] dry run freshclam
this freshclam needs to have something like a --dry-run or so. Super annoying if you test with something like proxy auth and you are constantly having this cdn throttling.

I would make it like that you can test the whole chain of events. Maybe add something like a http header X-test and the servers will respond with a tiny download or so. It should be as close as possible to a real request. (Without obviously causing this load/data)
