Subject: Re: [pgadmin-support] ENCODING (Unicode)
Thanks. Glad to hear about pgAdminIII...
To follow up on this topic:
Given that i can insert and retrieve Unicode values into either
ASCII-based
or Unicode-based DB, is Unicode-based DB less efficient? I
remember reading
something about it a while ago. I don't see immediately why that
would be the
case though, because special characters are 2 bytes either way,
assuming we
are not simplifying Unicode characters into ASCII.

Sorry, I can't answer that - perhaps someone on
pgsql-general(at)postgresql(dot)org would know?
Regards, Dave.
