> Passing the system property {{-Djava.security.egd=file:///dev/urandom}} forces the JVM to seed its PRNG from non-true random (/dev/urandom) instead of the true random (/dev/random). This makes the tests run faster, since without it they often hang waiting for entropy while Jetty is initializing.
> We should turn this on for the test targets by default, so developers/hudson boxes don't have to make this change system-wide or use workarounds like rngtools.
