Jakob,

That's reasonable, although I wouldn't use the word "low" to describe it.
I did try to include 10.1.2 from NIST's SP 800-90C but it didn't make it.

There is nothing preventing the use of the existing DRBGs with longer digests which Could increase number of bits.

Huh????  Where?  Why plural?

The only **one** I'm aware of is the one I added to stochastically flush the property cache where it doesn't need to be cryptographically secure.

Some applications need more than 256 independent random bits to satisfy their security design.  Some of the newer RNGs in OpenSSL presume otherwise in their
government design.


Enjoy
