VERY belated apologies for not getting back to you here. I was preparing an email on the nice features of RandomSample -- e.g. that you can use it to sample lines from a file -- when I realized that actually there was a bug that stopped you from doing that: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=10265 So I stopped to prepare a fix, and then I got distracted with a bunch of things I realized could be done to improve std.random ... :-P Anyway, I _will_ do the benchmark. Just might be a little while.
