... for the primordial kT determination. The Marsaglia algorithm was wrongly implemented (and missed an opportunity for optimisation by not storing the second Gaussian random number for later use), and the LimitedWeight function did not rescale its hit-or-miss comparison function to a maximum of 1, which was extremely inefficient for low kTmax, where basically every kT candidate was unnecessarily rejected by LimitedWeight. Other changes === The Gaussian random number algorithm is now implemented in Random.H and supersedes the previous one, which was less efficient. At that opportunity, I have also removed superfluous `inline` keyword uses in front of member function definitions. Observations in performance measurements === - When running 10k events for Examples/CI/LO_Z, this will increase event generation speed by ~50% when using -O3. This measurement will vary strongly, because events with very low kTmax seem to occur only every few thousand events. - There is however a significant increase in Retried events from Hadron_Decays (before 9, after 38). Further remarks === - Note that there is a chance that this fix renders previous tuning partly invalid. - Note that the Primordial kT generation using a Gaussian with a fixed width and an a-posteriori hit-or-miss Monte-Carlo that can have a width that is way smaller might still be very inefficient. The Gaussian generates a lot of large numbers before being accepted by the LimitedWeight. The Gaussian takes a kTmax argument but does not use it. This raises the question if perhaps this is not intended behaviour in the first place.
