Dear, I'm a newcomer on the boost list. I subscribed to share the results of my experiments on picking random points on sphere. This procedure is often a bottleneck for very fast Monte-Carlo simulations of physical process where you must pick vectors in random directions. I compiled a document that explain the experiments and the results. The conclusion contains some propositions to modify boost::random_on_sphere and I would like to know if a new implementation following the presented ideas would be welcome. Colas Schretter
