very high random access latency for Global memory fetch.
Using global memory as a uint array with that access pattern. It's
sequential access to the GPU, not random.
The hard coded upper 32 bits of the length is a memory optimisation for my
suggestion, since we won't be generating passwords > 2^29 chars long.
