Steve Rowe commented on SOLR-6254:
----------------------------------

bq. We probably should just disable SSL unless we can address it in a portable 
way.

I did this for the test I recently committed on SOLR-6137 
(TestCloudSchemaless), but I suppose you mean disabling SSL everywhere.

> Failing tests due to timeouts caused by SSL depleting random entropy on 
> Jenkins

> I found some info about /dev/random problems on FreeBSD here: 
> [https://wiki.freebsd.org/201308DevSummit/Security/DevRandom], which lead me 
> to /etc/rc.d/iinitrandom, which gets around the limited entropy by cat'ing a 
> bunch of shit to /dev/random:
> {code}
> ( ps -fauxww; sysctl -a; date; df -ib; dmesg; ps -fauxww ) \
>       | dd of=/dev/random bs=8k 2>/dev/null
> cat /bin/ls | dd of=/dev/random bs=8k 2>/dev/null
> {code}
> I think we should try the same strategy in a crontab every X minutes, to see 
> if that addresses the test failures.
