What platform are you on? I wonder if the generator has not been seeded
properly for some reason?
I am not an openssl guru, but in most other cryptographic toolkits I have
seen it should make a big difference between the first and subsequent signs
if this is the case.
Does it happen to other
Erwin,
From the previous correspondance it's actually increasing in time over
multiple signs. Which almost sounds like a /dev/random blocking until
it has enough entropy to provide some bits?
Of course there are other things it could be as well, so I'm just
putting theories at the moment :.
