We are currently using US7ASCII for our 240 Gig data warehouse.
We are considering switching over to UTF8 for a new generation of this product. We would start small in the development database but by the time that we get to production, we will have just as much data as we do now. My question is, does anyone know whether the size of the database will be significantly impacted by using UTF8 character set as opposed to US7ASCII? Have you noticed any increase in database size if you converted over?
