even you need to configure how TYPO3 will do encodings/decodings. If you
have the mb-lib enabled in your PHP (and you should...), enable in the
install tool for TYPO3 to use use mb_string. It should be much faster
than the PHP-based version provided with TYPO3 as a fallback.

Do you have forceCharSet set to utf-8?

Cheers,
Ernesto
