Instead of generating random bytes at each run, would it make sense to install Python 2.3, generate these 17 KiB, save them in a file, and use the file in this test?

It will take about 500 lines for hex-encoded or base64-encoded data (more if use the bytes literal). Generating 17KB of random data takes less than 0.0001 sec.
