Since the last version #1153, my node takes a very long time to start (half an hour or more). Trying to load the homepage gives a page saying that "Freenet is starting up", and below:
Not enough entropy is available! There isn't enough entropy available on your system... Freenet won't start until it can gather enough. This node runs in an unattended box, so any entropy sources will be non-human. I have read somewhere that /dev/random is slow to refill and can be exhausted easily if used too much. Could this be part of the problem? The full log displayed in that page is: INFO | jvm 2 | 2008/07/18 13:03:31 | INFO: Optimized native BigInteger library 'net/i2p/util/libjbigi-linux-pentium3.so' loaded from resource ERROR | wrapper | 2008/07/18 13:11:50 | Startup failed: Timed out waiting for signal from JVM.
