The problems with randrange also occur when I run it directly from a normal python prompt.
>>> random.randrange(0, 2<<63) instantly returns me the random numbers. whereas >>> random.SystemRandom().randrange(0, 2<<63) Takes forever to run. I cancelled the execution after about 10 minutes. As an interesting side notice: >>> random.SystemRandom().randrange(0, 2<<51) works fine and returns instantly with a random number >>> random.SystemRandom().randrange(0, 2<<52) however seems to run forever without any result... So it doesn't seem to be a django problem, but it still is very annoying. > If the host has not enough entropy, Django shouldn't fix it, an > administrator should. Are there any suggestions how I could fix it? I don't even know where to start looking... PS: >>> random.SystemRandom().randrange(0, 2<<63) works without any problems on my windows machine and on another hosted linux server where I have access to.
