Problem

I was wondering if anyone could point me to a very very large dictionary of random words that could be used to test some high performance string data structures? I'm finding some that are in the ~2MB range... however I'd like some larger if possible. I'm guessing there has to be some large standard string dataset somewhere that could be used. Thanks!
