Greg Hogan commented on FLINK-9090:
-----------------------------------
Why the need to be deterministic (and user configurable?) and where is this
called on from a hot path?
> Replace UUID.randomUUID with deterministic PRNG
> -----------------------------------------------

> Key: FLINK-9090
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9090
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Ted Yu
> Assignee: Hai Zhou
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently UUID.randomUUID is called in various places in the code base.
> * It is non-deterministic.
> * It uses a single secure random for UUID generation. This uses a single JVM
> wide lock, and this can lead to lock contention and other performance
> problems.
> We should move to something that is deterministic by using seeded PRNGs
