-- | Efficient generation of random bytestrings
--   
--   Efficient generation of random bytestrings. The implementation
--   populates uninitialized memory with uniformily distributed random 64
--   bit words. The words are generated using the PRNG from the mwc-random
--   package. The generated byte strings are suitable for statistical
--   applications. They are <i>not</i> suitable for cryptographic
--   applications.
