Well done, should have been done ages ago :)
Now, for the painful rebase of async_task_mgr changes :)

> Subject: Guid improvements
> 
> Hi all,
> 
> I just merged a couple of improvements to the [N]Guid class [1] to improve
> it's performance both CPU-wise and memory-wise, based on a set of benchmarks
> presented by Liran.
> 
> What this patchset achieves:
> 1. Clean up the code, so it's easier to understand and use
> 2. Eliminate the inflation in the memory foot print caused by the getValue()
> method
> 3. Eliminate all the heavy calls to UUID.fromString when creating a new/empty
> Guid instance as a default value
> 4. Note that the cleanups proposed in (1) will have minor performance
> benefits (e.g., eliminating useless conditional statements), but I doubt
> this would be anything to write home about.
> 
> From a developer's perspective, here's what changed:
> 1. No more NGuid, just Guid. Both static methods to create a Guid from String
> still exist, and are named createGuidFromString and
> createGuidFromStringDefaultEmpty.
> 2. [N]Guid.getValue() was removed, it's no longer needed after (1) was
> implemented
> 3. The Guid() constructor was made private, as it forced a redundant call to
> UUID.fromString(String). If you need an empty Guid instance, just use
> Guid.Empty
> 4. The Guid.EMPTY_GUID_VALUE string constant was removed, as it was used for
> redundant calls to UUID.fromString. If you really, REALLY, need it, just
> call Guid.Empty.getValue() for a UUID or Guid.Empty.toString() for a String.
> 5. All sorts of ways to transform Strings to Guids were removed. If you have
> a literal you trust, just use new Guid(String). If you suspect it may be
> null, use Guid.createGuidFromString[DefaultEmpty]
> 6. NewGuid is now called newGuid. We're in Java, not C# :-)

> Many thanks to everyone who reviewed this patchset.
> You guys rock!
