Sahil Aggarwal reassigned HBASE-19164: -------------------------------------- Assignee: Sahil Aggarwal > Avoid UUID.randomUUID in tests > ------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-19164 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-19164 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: test > Reporter: Mike Drob > Assignee: Sahil Aggarwal > Labels: beginner > > We have a lot of places in our test code where we use {{UUID.randomUUID}} to > generate table names or paths for uniqueness. Unfortunately, this uses up a > good chunk of system entropy, since Sun chose that random UUID's should use > the NativePRNGBlocking implementation. > We don't need to block on entropy for random bits to pick a random table name > in a test, so we can use something that doesn't strain the system too much - > secure random can be a source of problems on some VM or containers. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
