        // To orchestrate this between independant PHP processes on the same hosts,
        // we must have a common sense of time so that we only have to maintain
        // a single counter in a single lock file.
        //
        // Given that:
        // * The system clock can be observed via time(), without milliseconds.
        // * Some other clock can be observed via microtime(), which also offers
        //   millisecond precision.
        // * microtime() drifts in-process further and further away from the system
        //   clock the longer the longer the process runs for.
        //   For example, on 2018-10-03 an HHVM 3.18 JobQueue process at WMF,
        //   that ran for 9 min 55 sec, drifted 7 seconds.
        //   The drift is immediate for processes running while the system clock changes.
        //   time() does not have this problem. See https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=42659.
        //
        // We have two choices:
        //
        // 1. Use microtime() with the following caveats:
        //    - The last stored time may be in the future, or our current time
        //    may be in the past, in which case we'll frequently enter the slow
        //    timeWaitUntil() method to try and "sync" the current process with
        //    the previous process. We mustn't block for long though, max 10ms?
        //    - For any drift above 10ms, we pretend that the clock went backwards,
        //    and treat it the same way as after an NTP sync, by incrementing clock
        //    sequence instead. Given this rolls over automatically and silently
        //    and is meant to be rare, this is essentially sacrifices a reasonable
        //    guarantee of uniqueness.
        //    - For long running processes (e.g. longer than a few seconds) the drift
        //    can easily be more than 2 seconds. Because we only have a single lock
        //    file and don't want to keep too many counters and deal with clearing
        //    those, we fatal the user and refuse to make an ID. (T94522)
        // 2. Use time() and expand the counter by 1000x and use the first digits
        //    as if they are the millisecond fraction of the timestamp.
        //    Known caveats or perf impact: None.
