/**
 * Fancy ID generator that creates 20-character string identifiers with the following properties:
 *
 * 1. They're based on timestamp so that they sort *after* any existing ids.
 * 2. They contain 72-bits of random data after the timestamp so that IDs won't collide with other clients' IDs.
 * 3. They sort *lexicographically* (so the timestamp is converted to characters that will sort properly).
 * 4. They're monotonically increasing.  Even if you generate more than one in the same timestamp, the
 *    latter ones will sort after the former ones.  We do this by using the previous random bits
 *    but "incrementing" them by 1 (only in the case of a timestamp collision).

A few conversations have circled around user-side structural profiling. For context, see React PR #7549: Show React events in the timeline when ReactPerf is active

One particular concern is the measurement overhead. This gist has a benchmarking script (measure.js) for evaluating overhead and initial results.

Results: performance.mark()

Runs about 0.65µs per mark() call. Naturally, that's ~= an overhead of 1ms for 1500 mark()s.
