Thousands doesn't seem like it will be problem...so I'd keep it simple and put 
it in string form.
 
You'll cut the bytes in half for a blob but it doesn't sound like you need it 
for just thousands unless you're really memory starved.

Subject: EXTERNAL:[sqlite] Best way to represent UUID



Hi there. I'm wondering what the best way to represent a 16 byte UUID in
sqlite might be (I didn't see any specific data type for UUIDs in the
documentation, but forgive me if there is).

I could just stringify or blob it, but I might have to index a large number
of items by this identifier (thousands) , so speed is a consideration more
than space would be.
