Faster to randomize many results on MySQL Server or in PHP

Is it faster for the randomize the sort order of a large set of results on the MySQL server or after I have received the data in PHP?

 

Does anyone have any data to backup either side, or even anecdotal experience?

 

It seems to me that MySQL will probably be faster, however I can't do the benchmark right now, I don't think I have enough data at the moment, but I do see it as a problem in the near future.
