    Any comments about how related the Linus Jitter Dance (btw, glad to see that djb isn't the only one making new dance moves..) is to JitterRNG: https://www.chronox.de/jent.html ?

    The PDF linked to on the page goes into more detail but that is measured across a number of CPUs and has good performance in both amount and entropy quality produced. You do need to measure it per CPU, but it does comply with SP 800-90B which is what the US Gov considers the standards for randomness.

  • A Lack of Empathy, er no, not that, ah, Entropy - that's the ticket.

    jitterentropy-rngd, a tool that uses CPU execution time jitter to quickly generate pseudorandom numbers that can be pumped into the pool, a helping hand. We tried Haveged and rngd-tools, jitter worked best for us.
