// A `ChaChaRng` which is periodically reseeded from an `OsRng`. This was originally using an
// `OsRng`, but sourcing entropy from the kernel was measured to be a performance bottleneck.
// Conventional wisdom seems to be that a securely seeded ChaCha20 PRNG is secure enough for
// cryptographic purposes, so it's certainly secure enough for generating unpredictable session
// identifiers.

    // Reseed every 32KiB.
