Getting results faster

### Getting results faster
|
||||
|
||||
If you just want to know if a domain is registered or not but do not
|
||||
care about getting the real owner information you can set:
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
$whois->deep_whois = false;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
this will tell phpWhois to just query one whois server. For .com, .net
|
||||
and .tv domains and ip addresses this will prevent phpWhois to ask more
|
||||
than one whois server, you will just know if the donmain is registered
|
||||
or not and which is the registrar but not the owner information.

||||
|
||||
UTF-8
|
||||
-----
|
||||
### UTF-8
|
||||
|
||||
PHPWhois will assume that all whois servers resturn UTF-8 encoded output,
|
||||
if some whois server does not return UTF-8 data, you can include it in
|
||||
the NON_UTF8 array in whois.servers.php
