It seems to be piling up rand-helper processes. Someone knows why this

This is OpenSSH, right? Which version? Are there any processes with

I recall there there was a bug that would prevent timing out and killing
of entropy gatherers when they hung, but that was fixed years ago.

usually comes from bad judgement.
