in thread New software TRNG

That make sense and is much what I suspected. Leaving aside the question of what that says about the robustness of your TRNG, a better solution to the problem is to ensure bignum is "off" in your sub:

sub TRNGrand { no bignum; ... }
If the code changes take longer than the time saved, it's fast enough already.

    Ahhhh! Thank you very much indeed for that. I looked all over the Internet for a way of switching off modules in subroutines but found nothing!

    I have tried it out and it works. I can now completely get rid of the comments regarding bignum.

      Next time forget the internet :D and check the docs :)
