Does anyone have info/experience on this issue? BTW I don't believe that UTF-8 page is *significant* larger - most of the characters (e.g. HTML code) are still represented with one byte. And what's about images? HTML document usually contains many images and I suppose that impact on the traffic won't be so serious. Please, let me know if I'm wrong.
