Hi all,
By default, FreeBSD ports does not build postgresql with icu (http://www.icu-project.org/)
Some questions:
1) It is necessary that icu should be used on FreeBSD?
I have heard that FreeBSD's locale (glibc) has sorting problem with Postgresql UTF8 DB.
reference: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Todo:ICU
2) After searching in google, it was said that using ICU is faster (in terms of sorting in locale).
3) Any other pros and cons?
Thanks,
Patrick
