faster alternative to Math.random()?

hi,

i have profiled a mini-game i've written and found that calls to Math.random are taking up a good proportion of the time (5%). The source for Math.random() ispublicstaticdouble random(){

if (randomNumberGenerator ==null) initRNG();

return randomNumberGenerator.nextDouble();

}

which is exactly as expected.

I don't need any statistical guarantees about the randomness (just need to add some noise to some moving entities paths), so was wondering if there are any neat tricks to do this faster..

thanks,

asjf
