From http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-6841

The 'uuid' gem uses a state file to maintain some global sequencing. However when using this file under JRuby, performance is severely impacted. It seems like the problem is its repeated reopening of the file for every UUID generated.

Benchmark:

require 'uuid'

(ARGV[0] || 5).to_i.times do
  Benchmark.bm(20) do |bm|
    bm.report("default") do
      uuid = UUID.new
      100_000.times { uuid.generate }
    end
    bm.report("default, no state file") do
      old_state_file = UUID.state_file
      UUID.state_file = false
      uuid = UUID.new
      100_000.times { uuid.generate }
      UUID.state_file = old_state_file
    end
  end
end

Works for me on MacOS.
I guess that was fixed from #4393.

@k77ch7 I have no idea how #4393 would fix this, but if it's fixed it's fixed! Thanks for the ping :-)
