Which is why we need the unicode=off switch. I don't think there is any way we can make Unicode PHP as fast as non-Unicode PHP. For people who

Unicode it would be really nice to maintain the fast non-Unicode mode.


What is wrong with PHP 5.1? People don't *have* to upgrade to the
unicode enabled PHP if they don't want to. And it would probably be
"nice" to have that mode for some users, but should that be over our own
back with multiple implementations of everything?

Are you suggesting that people who don't want unicode should stick with 5.1 for perpetuity?
