73	login slow with new os2_randget() in os2ea.c	Herwig Bauernfeind	Herwig Bauernfeind	"The new os2_randget() function in os2ea.c slows down login (and possibly other operations) considerably.

For each login the randbyte_hrtimer() subroutine is executed exactly 129 times, a DosSleep(5) occurs for every execution, this sums up to a delay of almost 0,7 secs per login.

My suggestion as a fix would be to remove the randbyte_hrtimer() portion completely (reducing DosSleep(5) to DosSleep(1) is better, but still slow) as randbyte_hrtimer() is only one of 3 components and the remaining  randbyte_sysinfo() and randbyte_perf() still provide more ""randomness"" than what was available before Changeset #160 and the resulting login speed is perfectly acceptable this way.

An appropriate unified dif is attached."	defect	closed	major	Samba Server for eCS (OS/2) 1.0.1	Samba Server	3.0.33	fixed	login slow os2_randget()	herwig.bauernfeind@…
