Russia may not be the world champion in terms of computer use or Internet access, but when it comes to non-Latin domains the patriotic .рф is the name to beat.
Registration for .рф opened in November 2010. As of Tuesday, there were more than 845,000 addresses registered, which makes it the biggest internationalized domain name in the world, according to the coordination center.
The domain's growth rates are also impressive. Monthly growth rates have been comparable to those of Russia's Latin-script top-level domain .ru, the EURid report states.
The .рф domain grew 54 percent between December 2010 and December 2011, and it has collected 5,973 new registrants since the beginning of this month alone.
