Replica IDs repeatedly occur in the metadata for a replica and are suggested to be 16-byte GUIDs. Because of this, it is more efficient to represent replica IDs by using a map between replica IDs to 4-byte replica keys. Replica keys are then used where references to particular replicas are required.
