 Synopsis: Efficient generation of random bytestrings
 Description:
-    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 /not/ suitable for cryptographic
+    applications.
