We had added this boot-time read specifically for VPS / VM first-boot environments with the hope that it would be hooked up to something fast, like the host's /dev/urandom
The first boot of a VPS or VM is a relatively deterministic one and of course there hasn't been a chance to collect entropy or get a random-seed file from the previous boot
I wonder if you know what is feeding /dev/hwrng in your hosting system?
Btw, if I go offline before you are able to reply, I will check this channel's logs and come back ***: lfam has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 276 seconds)
