Is continuously seeding a random number generator performance intensive?

Alright, turns out it was just a template.

One more question though, I have my Engine set to have 'ulong' as 
a seed through the template, which means that it'll also return 
'ulong' as a result. Is there a way to have it take 'ulong' as a 
seed, and output 'ubyte'? Divisions for every result would be 
expensive, and shifting the output wouldn't return a uniform 
distribution.
