[Red5] NetConnection.Connect.Failed and retry

The program sends CAPTCHA image from Red5 to Flash AS3 client using
AMF3. I attached the source code in this mail. You can also download
at:
http://cntt.tv/system/ngoc/captcha.zip

The remote server mentioned in the previous mail is a:
* Ubuntu 7.10 fresh install
* Pentium 4 2GHz, 1GB RAM

It is a personal server and the network load is almost zero. However,
Red5 always takes ~6min to start. I've heard from the mailing list
that random number entropy generator on larger servers can make Red5
start slower than smaller ones. Generating CAPTCHA needs random
number. Can this be the cause?

Ngoc.

PS:
By the way, the site http://cntt.tv uses OpenKH
(http://rubyforge.org/projects/openkh), which is a software enabling a
group of people to write blog together. Please try it if you want
something like that.
