<p>
For some people, performance of random number generation is an important consideration
when choosing a random number generator or a particular distribution function.
This page provides numerous performance tests with the wide variety of generators
and distributions available in the boost library.
</p>
<p>
The performance has been evaluated on an Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU Q 840 @ 1.87GHz,
1867 Mhz with Visual C++ 2010, Microsoft Windows 7 Professional and with gcc
4.4.5, Ubuntu Linux 2.6.35-25-generic. The speed is reported in million random
numbers per second (M rn/sec), generated in a tight loop.
