Firstly. I have fully read and understand all of the comments. However
there is absolutely something wrong with the way entropy is captured for
REMOTE sessions.

It asks me to do some work e.g. type on the keyboard. So I do so for
literally about 5 minutes generating pages of text and it still looks
like it has frozen. The only way to get it to work was to open another
remote session and use that find command listed here.

THE ISSUE IS AS FOLLOWS:

- There is poor user interface guidance about what to do in particular
for remote sessions.

- It should provide some sort of progress indicator that you are (a)
indeed generating bytes and (b) how far I have to go before it is
finished.
