For instance:
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Aug 30 2007, 16:15:51)
[GCC 4.1.0 (SUSE Linux)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
__[1] >>> s=" "*int(5E9)
6.050000 sec
__[1] >>> u=s.decode("utf-8")
4.710000 sec
__[1] >>> len(u)
705032704
__[2] >>> len(s)
5000000000
__[3] >>>
I would have expected both lengths to be 5E9
