+=head1 NAME
+
+lh_stats, lh_node_stats, lh_node_usage_stats, lh_stats_bio,
+lh_node_stats_bio, lh_node_usage_stats_bio - LHASH statistics
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/lhash.h>
+
+ void lh_stats(LHASH *table, FILE *out);
+ void lh_node_stats(LHASH *table, FILE *out);
+ void lh_node_usage_stats(LHASH *table, FILE *out);
+
+ void lh_stats_bio(LHASH *table, BIO *out);
+ void lh_node_stats_bio(LHASH *table, BIO *out);
+ void lh_node_usage_stats_bio(LHASH *table, BIO *out);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The B<LHASH> structure records statistics about most aspects of
+accessing the hash table. This is mostly a legacy of Eric Young
+writing this library for the reasons of implementing what looked like
+a nice algorithm rather than for a particular software product.
+
+lh_stats() prints out statistics on the size of the hash table, how
+many entries are in it, and the number and result of calls to the
+routines in this library.
+
+lh_node_stats() prints the number of entries for each 'bucket' in the
+hash table.
+
+lh_node_usage_stats() prints out a short summary of the state of the
+hash table. It prints the 'load' and the 'actual load'. The load is
+the average number of data items per 'bucket' in the hash table. The
+'actual load' is the average number of items per 'bucket', but only
+for buckets which contain entries. So the 'actual load' is the
+average number of searches that will need to find an item in the hash
+table, while the 'load' is the average number that will be done to
+record a miss.
+
+lh_stats_bio(), lh_node_stats_bio() and lh_node_usage_stats_bio()
+are the same as the above, except that the output goes to a B<BIO>.
