in thread How do I get a unique Perl Interpreter ID?

What if you would simply (ab)use a RBDMS, create a sequence there, and get the sequence's nextval whenever you need an ID?
because a call out across the network to a bottlenecked server is exactly the sort of thing I'm trying to avoid (compare with interpreter ID being right there in thread-specific storage).
