Well, that might be your opinion; "slow" might be true to a certain
degree, but it's not much slower than using any locale in the first
place. The other comments are no qualified statements at all, so I'm
going to ignore them.

UTF-8 works everywhere with every language, and finally gets rid of
the entire encoding problem altogether. Non-UTF8 encodings make text
unreadable!
