> afaik the banana's is not even detectable So they might just as well have used salt? AFAIK that is best practice. :)

  Potassium Chloride is sold as a sodium-free table salt substitute and will give you far more decay events per second than a banana. I'd have to double check the decay rate in a kilo of KCl vs background radiation, but even if the decay rate is too low for random number generation you can still use it to salt your hashes[0].

    KCl is definitely detectable. And the same goes for KOH. And it significantly increases the throughput.
