we've actually observed the same on some configuration. Yet, I've not
come to find the cause. I was suspecting the srand() which we should
probably not use anyhow and instead port to C++ std::mt19937, like we
already do elsewhere in the code

If you can reliably reproduce that, try to change to std::mt19937 and
see if that improves the start up time.

Thanks
Andre
