>  uses a huge number of call to UUID.randomUUID() which is very slow in linux 
> , unix environment if there is not much activity [ like mouse move etc.] .In 
> addition to that UUID.randomUUID() depends on /dev/(u)random to get a random 
> number, such system call costs IO and /dev/random is bandwidth/rate limited  
> which again slows down overall performance.
