Darran Lofthouse commented on ELY-121:
--------------------------------------

This sounds to me something we would want very closely related to the subsystem integration, potentially allowing different random strategies to be configured for different scenarios.

Other capabilities such as nonce generation could also take advantage of this.

> Provide a facility to initialize and pool SecureRandom instances in a background thread so that when things like SSLContexts are initialized, there are ready SecureRandoms.  A background daemon thread which simply feeds instances into a modestly-sized BlockingQueue is probably more than adequate.
