关于Java的UUID

UUID或者UNID或者UID，是一个统一唯一标识，可以用来标记文档、数据或其它需要唯一标识的东西。Java 5.0内置UUID的实现，见java.util.UUID. 下面代码是找到的2种实现方式，随手测了一下，两者时间效率居然出奇的相似，在10000000次循环中，均在660秒左右。

import java.math.BigInteger;
import java.util.Random;
import java.util.UUID;

public class UUIDTest {
	private static UUID uid = null;
	private static final Random RANDOM = new Random();

	public static String getUUID() {
		uid = UUID.randomUUID(); 
		String idstr = uid.toString().replace("-", "");
		return idstr.toUpperCase();
	}


	public static String generateGUID(){
		return new BigInteger(165, RANDOM).toString(36).toUpperCase();
	}

	/**
	 * @param args
	 */
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		int cycles = 100000000; 

		long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
		for (int i = 0; i < cycles; i++) {
			//System.out.println(getUUID());
			getUUID();
		}
		long end = System.currentTimeMillis();
		String msg = "Time(ms) of getUUID() " + cycles + " times: " ;
		System.out.println (msg + (end - start));


		long start1 = System.currentTimeMillis();
		for (int i = 0; i < cycles; i++) {
			//System.out.println(generateGUID());
			generateGUID();
		}
		long end1 = System.currentTimeMillis();
		msg = "Time(ms) of generateGUID() " + cycles + " times: " ;
		System.out.println (msg + (end1 - start1));
	}
}

2者所生成ID字串如下：
