Not sure what I can do to help the entropy issue. It may just be that
I've had a huge rsync job running for days and if it's using the same pool
it could be draining all the entropy faster than the system can generate
it. I don't know enough
One more - which appears to work for me in generating DNSSEC
signatures just fills up /dev/random (and I've no idea if this will
help?)
Install the 'haveged' package, www.irisa.fr/caps/projects/hipsor

Yesterday the messages were persisting for hours, and there was upwards of
100 stalled at a time.

On Linux we solved the entropy issue using the rng-tools package and put
there /dev/urandom as source for additional entropy.
That's not really solving the problem. That's fooling the system into
thinking there's more entropy than there

Phil already made some good suggestions, some additional ideas:
If you don't care about the quality of the RNG, you could just inject
data from /dev/urandom into your entropy-pool:

I installed this and the problem has not reappeared. Hopefully that
