Would you kindly strike the last bullet point when you apply the patch, because it is not true, as I just noticed:

>> +	test-genrandom seed1 2000000 >large1 &&
...
>> +	test-genrandom seed2 2500000 >huge &&

The seeds are different so that the files are completely dissimilar. This does not affect the rest of the analysis I gave in the commit message.

Thanks, -- Hannes
