"I had interesting #Linux problems lately. I updated the kernel in my Debian install, but when I rebooted the desktop manager wouldn't start for ten minutes! After scouring log files for 1hr, I found the cryptographic random number generator was taking forever to initialize--they optimized bootup so much the CRNG couldn't sample enough noise to finish!"
