Could you post a larger sample (say, 10MB) somewhere for statistical
analysis? The 1939 bytes here look pretty good at first glance:

1939 samples, total weight 7729, average weight per sample 3.986075
Bit 0 average weight 0.502837
Bit 1 average weight 0.482723
Bit 2 average weight 0.490975
Bit 3 average weight 0.521919
Bit 4 average weight 0.496132
Bit 5 average weight 0.484786
Bit 6 average weight 0.504899
Bit 7 average weight 0.501805
