OK Chris. Next time on I will post to the whole community. I did not understand the second part of your reply. You have said that " We have seen lack of entropy in /dev/random (or equivalent) just blocking: basically, the CPU is just waiting for data to become available for, say, crypto operations." I am not conversant with these terms. What do you mean when you say this? What is lack of entropy in dev/random? Please clarify.

Thanks for following up -- next time, please post back to the list and not just to me. We are a community and not just a collection of individuals. > Unfortunately, now there is another problem.

I guess you'll have to figure out what takes so long in the native portion of your library. We have seen lack of entropy in /dev/random (or equivalent) just blocking: basically, the CPU is just waiting for data to become available for, say, crypto operations. So, it looks like *nothing* is happening (which is true) but your process takes forever to accomplish its task. The solution on *NIX is generally to use /dev/urandom instead of /dev/random. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk/s8voACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PDq3gCfdp8qG20b7rdGBCyk05PLPjLF 5tkAnjphhcCP8pyvS4cM+aRnsEaqGINE =eESs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- This email and any attachments are intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed and may be confidential and/or privileged.
