You can grep through, the onlyi real function taht uses it is 'rand_str'. and i'm not sure really why that would be called at the point that you're seeing the slow down.
I think it more valuable for you to figure out why your environment is causing this issue and fixing that rather than fixing cloud-init (and subsequently all users of entropy). Also, information about how you've come across this bug would be good. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1727358 Title: cloud-init is slow to complete init on minimized images To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1727358/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
