The seed table is used to seed the random number generator. Why? Because
if you seed based on the clock, and you have two processors, it's possible
to get two identical numbers out of the generator. It's really, really bad
to have two users with the same session identifier. So, we make SID
generation single-threaded by putting the seed in the database.
