you might have a look at rng-tools (rngd) or haveged to boost your entropy pool. We use haveged in a VMware virtualized environment and this reduces a plain tomcat startup from multiple minutes to just a few secondes. I think Red Hat preferes rngd but there should be some articles on access.redhat.com to help you depending on the used hypervisor.
