Comment (by sarciszewski):

 https://github.com/paragonie/random_compat/releases/tag/1.0.10 - This
 should fix the known problem that Dion referred to on Windows.

 If you change [this
 constant](https://github.com/paragonie/random_compat/blob/2fa50aa2f17066fa74ba00d943e8cee1a98284af/lib/random.php#L114)
 from 50304 to 50401 does this performance problem evaporate?

 (Note that OpenSSL is our last resort, so this means that you're not
 benefiting from a CSPRNG on outdated versions of PHP on Windows.)
