asynchronously it will not block.

+The `crypto.randomBytes()` method will not complete until there is

 This should normally never take longer than a few milliseconds. The only time
 when generating the random bytes may conceivably block for a longer period of
 time is right after boot, when the whole system is still low on entropy.
