New submission from Mosquito <[email protected]>:
I does a small experiment, and found out that if you generate UUID4 with int
instead of sequence of bytes, then the generation of UUID4 occurs up to three
times faster.
.. code-block: python
import random
import uuid
print("uuid.uuid4()")
%timeit uuid.uuid4()
# 5.49 µs ± 120 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100000 loops each)
print("uuid.UUID(int=random.getrandbits(128), version=4)")
%timeit uuid.UUID(int=random.getrandbits(128), version=4)
# 2.58 µs ± 94.5 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100000 loops each)
I have already made fixes to my fork on GH, tell me, will it be useful to
someone else besides me?
