Redis also has TIME to get the current server time with milliseconds and the unix time stamp. I'm reasonably sure that's what's being used to get the first part of the ID anyway.

Ah, I didn't know that. Although the post says that the timestamp of an id might also be the timestamp of the last message, since the clock can go backwards, so in the worst case a client might get some duplicate messages.
