With a Heisenberg Compensator! No. Like with any bottlenecked resource, you first measure how much you are using per "transaction", whatever that may be. Then you see whether you can use what you have more efficiently. Maybe you don't need it at all. Or maybe you can cut corners by using /dev/urandom or something. But suppose you are generating tons of SSL certificates. You can't --or shouldn't-- cut corners. For example, see https://freedom-to-tinker.com/blog/nadiah/new-research-theres-no-need-panic-over-factorable-keys-just-mind-your-ps-and-qs/ https://freedom-to-tinker.com/blog/nadiah/new-research-there... So... what do you do? The problem, like almost any bottleneck problem, isn't that you don't have "enough" of the resource, it's that the resource is out of balance with the other resources like CPU or RAM. When you think about it that way a lot of possibilities open up, like installing special cards or dongles that generate entropy, or by buying lots of lower-powered devices that have more entropy relative to their CPU throughput.
