>> NativePRNG SecureRandom doesn’t scale with number of threads. The performance starts dropping as we increase the number of threads. Even going from 1 thread to 2 threads shows significant drop. The bottleneck is the singleton RandomIO instance. Making the RandomIO ThreadLocal helps in removing this bottleneck.
