Re: [osc] Very slow openstack commands in Stein Devstack running on VM

My wild speculation is that the delay has something to do with obtaining a random number, which can be a problem on virtual machines due to their lack of entropy. My knowledge in this area is paper-thin, though. And I wonder what happens to all the Devstacks used in CI?

All of the test VMs run haveged. We preinstall that on our images: https://opendev.org/openstack/project-config/src/commit/e02cdfa1f489838aa2bb...

Thus my questions: *Is the delay really caused by my running the cloud on a VM? What can I do to improve this?*

Thanks,
