  • [phrase library..[@/libs/uuid/ Uuid]:]
    • Optimized random_generator to use OS-provided entropy directly, thus avoiding the initialization cost of a PRNG.
    • Provided random_generator_mt19937 for bulk UUID generation (more expensive to initialize the PRNG, but may be faster overall if generating lots of UUIDs).
    • Handle entropy acquisition errors instead of ignoring them.
    • Use getentropy() or arc4random() instead of /dev/urandom on platforms that provide it.
    • Support for CloudABI
    • Support for Windows UWP (non-desktop partitions) through BCrypt ([github uuid 24])
