the postgres trick is to use partial index on the column to improve the
query speed.
1. create a substring index on the table, lets say 5 characters wide:
CREATE INDEX speed_shortuuid ON table(substr(shortuuid, 0, 5)
2. have all queries include a match against that index, calculating the
I do not know the optimization trick. I'd be interested to know! It would
be nice to not have to translate to and from the UUID type.

side question - have you done any tests on how the UUID type queries as
your database scales? It may make sense to do the shortuuid as a text
field, which you can put a substring index on. if you don't know that
postgresql optimization trick, I can explain it further.
