UUIDs are popular, but bad for performance (2019)
The linked article discusses the issues - the storage size when encoded as char, as 16byte values, as well as the impact on read/write locality.

Where does it discuss any of this? It compares base 10/16/32/64. There’s no mention at all of UUIDs or GUIDs.
(Or do you mean the original article, rather than the linked Crockford article?)
