Hi guys,
Here's a diff that enables Gcrypt's "enable quick random numbers" option
while Cherokee starts up. This speeds up SSL/TLS on my Linksys NSLU2 by a few
orders of magnitude...
This is already in trunk, but might help someone who wants to use the
debian-stable version of Cherokee without having to upgrade to 0.6 (which
seems to be 'under heavy development' at the moment).
