It's said, that so many programmers relay on
some database specific serial number generation
algorithm.

Actually there're algorithm out there, which need
only minimal itneraction with a database (2 sql
statements during start up of an application) and
one sql-statement at the end of the application.

During lifetime the application generates keys on its
own - guaranteed, that they are unique.

These algorithm are not only much faster, but also
database independent.
