Generating data for MongoDB compression testing
// these docs, in 2.6, get bucketed into the 256 bucket (size without header = 240)
// From Object.bsonsize(db.data.findOne()), the size is actually 198 for reference, so add 16 to that for an exact fit
// with that doc size, 80,000 is a nice round number under the 16MiB limit, so will use that for the inner loop
// We are shooting for ~16 GiB of data, without indexes, so do 1,024 iterations (512 from each client)
// This will mean being a little short (~500MiB) in terms of target data size, but keeps things simple

// we get an ObjectID in _id for "free", and it's a common default, so let's leave it as-is
// next, let's get one random number per iteration, use it to generate a bunch of consistently sized data

// date is easy, just multiply by a decent number
