Subject: about DAS

We currently use java security package in our system. We experence the
following problem.

The sign() member function of Signature class sometime just hangs up. It
seems into some kind of infinite loop. It usually happens when
workstations have heavy work load. The algorithm used is "SHA/DSA".

Could you tell me why? Is it known bugs? Are there ways to work around?

Thank you very much.
