FastUUID is a library which provides CPython bindings to Rust's UUID library.
The provided API is exactly as Python's builtin UUID class.
It is supported on Python 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 & 3.9.
It is much faster than Python's pure-python implementation and it is stricter when parsing hexadecimal representation of UUIDs.
If you need to generate a lot of random UUIDs we also provide the uuid4_bulk() function which releases the GIL for the entire duration of the generation. This allows other threads to run while the library generates UUIDs.
