Title: Reservoir Sampling in C

## Benchmarking

Run on a pair of 6.3GB fastq files with 28,312,206 reads. The C was also run in memory. This was the fastest I could get the Ruby to run on a few setups.

### Ruby (from disk on local machine)

```
user system total real
495.290000 9.410000 504.700000 (572.555838)
```

### C (from disk on local machine)

```
user system total real
19.510000 4.140000 23.650000 (149.840868)

```

### C (in memory on high memory machine)

```
user system total real
28.440000 15.160000 43.600000 ( 43.616507)
