Since all access will be within a tenant only, will it make any performance difference between using purely random values vs <tenant no prefix part>+<random value>.Two benefits of <tenant no prefix part>+<random value>:1. In a non-partitioned table, it gives your index "locality of data": all of customer X's record pointers are in This subtree. Makes buffers more efficient when a customer runs reports. Bonus points if you then regularly CLUSTER using that table.2. Makes table partitioning by <tenant prefix> much easier. That also enhances locality of data.Just make sure that the field ID is BIGINT...
