Erm, don't you perhaps mean /dev/urandom? With /dev/random, compiler could
easily use all the random numbers in kernel buffer and than would have to
wait until new ones are generated. That would be fun: one would have to
press some keys on the keyboard or ping the machine in order for the
compiler to do its job :-).
