    Again here the grouping could be called from multiple threads, but in this 
case doubling up on some numbers should not be a big deal.

> '''Implement a random number generator based on the XORShift algorithm 
> discovered by George Marsaglia. This RNG is observed 4.5 times faster than 
> {@link Random} in benchmark, with the cost that abandon thread-safety. So 
> it's recommended to create a new {@link XORShiftRandom} for each thread.'''
