[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-9581) pig-tests spend time waiting on
/dev/random for SecureRandom
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9581?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14644261#comment-14644261 ]
Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-9581:
----------------------------------------------
[~aweisberg] Could you attach a patch for 2.2, too? 2.1 will EOL soon enough, but 2.2 will stay with us for a while - would be good to have those savings too.

> We don't need secure random numbers (for unit tests) so waiting for entropy doesn't make much sense. Luckily Java makes it easy to point to /dev/urandom for entropy. It also transparently handles it correctly on Windows.
