Use a statically allocated buffer on stack instead of using malloc for reading the random bytes. Using a local array is faster than allocating heap memory on every initiation of the command.

It might be easier to put this patch before the other one.

Again, this is not being changed by my patch. This is existing code which is not being touched by the patch. These kinds of fixes should be taken up separately. Thanks.
Ah yes I keep missing that.
