/dev/random is a high quality entropy source and requires more time to
generate
Interesting, using MCRYPT_DEV_URANDOM instead of MCRYPT_DEV_RANDOM seems
practically instantaneous.
Another less elegant solution I've found is to simply str_pad to the length
returned by mcrypt_get_iv_size.
Still begs the question though, any idea what's holding up the show w/
MCRYPT_DEV_RANDOM?
