Hi Team,

Top is showing that rngd(random number generator daemon) is using high CPU usage in our machine as below. I download the romulus image from Jenkins and ran it in QEMU environment and it had the same situation, how should I do to avoid or fix it?

Load average: 1.99 2.16 1.05 2/101 1297
  PID  PPID USER     STAT   VSZ %VSZ %CPU COMMAND
  109     1 root     RN   12716   3%  79% /usr/sbin/rngd -f -r /dev/hwrng

Thanks,
Andrew
