sorry, I have no idea since I am doing primarily embedded stuff. Speed and
backward compatibility are the most important factors to me.
But it seems, that not everybody is happy with the current Codegear Unicode
solution:

After reading this thread, I am not sure, if Delphi 2009 compatibility is a
must for FPC/Lazarus.
The complaints there are about lack of backwards compatibility, i.e.
people need to suddenly replace char by ansichar.
FPC will remain 100% compatible with old code. This is why there need to
be separate platforms. Platforms where char=ansichar for full
compatibility and platforms where char=widechar to take advantage of full
Unicode.
