Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-6108:
-------------------------------------------
Sylvain's idea was to have the clients request an ID from the server on
initial connection, which would let us get away with a 16 bit id. 64k
simultaneous clients per cluster seems reasonable. (IDs could be reused after
disconnect.)

> As discussed in CASSANDRA-6106, we could create a 64-bit type with 48 bits of
> timestamp and 16 bites of unique coordinator id. This would give us a
> unique-per-cluster value that could be used as a more compact replacement for
> many TimeUUID uses.
