Hello,

after finally applying the latest kernel updates to our
live system
(now on 3.12.53-40-default #1 SMP Thu Feb 25 06:26:23 UTC 2016 (b2ce64e) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)

we noticed haveged cosuming one full cpu constantly.

It looks exactly like this bug here
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/haveged/+bug/1318678
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=740117

and indeed, after changing poolsize to 4060 (from 4096) in
/usr/lib/systemd/system/haveged.service
everything behaves back normally.
(we never touched haveged before, so 4096 must be system default)

Strangely, this did not affect our other 2 servers with exactly
the same 13.1 evergreen with all latest patches and haveged running
with -w 4096. (and not my home PC also same versions)

Any thoughts ?

(Debian upgraded to 1.9.1-2, it seems, but we are still at
haveged-1.7c-2.1.2.x86_64 !?)

Cheers, Tom.

(Thanks for keeping 13.1 "green"!)
