+ # The version 7 UUID starts with the least significant 48 bits of a 64 bit
+ # Unix timestamp (milliseconds since the epoch) and fills the remaining bits
+ # with random data, excluding the version and variant bits.
+ #
+ # This allows version 7 UUIDs to be sorted by creation time. Time ordered
+ # UUIDs can be used for better database index locality of newly inserted
+ # records, which may have a significant performance benefit compared to random
+ # data inserts.

+ # The result contains 74 random bits (9.25 random bytes).

+ # ==== Monotonicity
+ #
+ # UUIDv7 has millisecond precision by default, so multiple UUIDs created
+ # within the same millisecond are not issued in monotonically increasing
+ # order. To create UUIDs that are time-ordered with sub-millisecond
+ # precision, up to 12 bits of additional timestamp may added with
+ # +extra_timestamp_bits+. The extra timestamp precision comes at the expense
+ # of random bits. Setting <tt>extra_timestamp_bits: 12</tt> provides ~244ns
+ # of precision, but only 62 random bits (7.75 random bytes).

+ # Any rollbacks of the system clock will break monotonicity. UUIDv7 is based
+ # on UTC, which excludes leap seconds and can rollback the clock. To avoid
+ # this, the system clock can synchronize with an NTP server configured to use
+ # a "leap smear" approach. NTP or PTP will also be needed to synchronize
+ # across distributed nodes.
+ #
+ # Counters and other mechanisms for stronger guarantees of monotonicity are
+ # not implemented. Applications with stricter requirements should follow
+ # {Section 6.2}[https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-uuidrev-rfc4122bis-07.html#monotonicity_counters]
