Another recently committed patch upstream has taken out /dev/urandom as
the default random source for shred (the internal PRNG is back in).
shred is now at least 10 times faster.
I have opened (and marked fixed) an upstream task to signal a fix is
available on current trunk.
** Also affects: coreutils
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Changed in: coreutils
Status: New => Fix Released
