+This script will generate `num_curves` curves with random `prime_size` bit size parameters.
It requires a timeout value, as the curve order computation can get really
slow for some unfortunate curve parameters, it is therefore more effective
to skip those after some timeout.
+The `-l -s -p` options correspond to ecgen options.
