That does not sound right. If 128-bit UUID are implemented properly according to standard, the chances of collision is *zero* *for all practical purposes*. The chances of collision are so low that implementations can ignore it. To get to a 50% probability of at least one collision you need to create 2.71 quintillion - so generating a billion of them per second for 85 years. Just to get a one-in-a-billion chance of a duplicate requires making 103 trillion.
