I might noticed a simmilar issue: I ran the JVM in a linux OS on a VM
(in virtualbox btw). The jdk for some reason request a random number.
The JDK asks the LinuxOS for a new random number (maybe in the hope
to use a hardware-based TRNG). Since this linux in virtualbox is
not-so low-level the random number is generated due to RAM
squarenumbers, because no memory is changed - no new random number
has been generated and we get a OS-based softlock.

WHAT?

YES, id reported this many years ago 
https://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4952383

There is a workaround (from comments): set java.security.egd=file:/dev/urandom

That is a very very very old hack which shouldn't be required under any modern installation.

My "WHAT?" question was more about the string of words before that, only some of which coalesced into a coherent idea.
