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. + +OPENSSL_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. + +OPENSSL_LH_node_stats() prints the number of entries for each 'bucket' in the +hash table. + +OPENSSL_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. + +OPENSSL_LH_stats_bio(), OPENSSL_LH_node_stats_bio() and OPENSSL_LH_node_usage_stats_bio() +are the same as the above, except that the output goes to a B<BIO>. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +These functions do not return values. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<bio(3)>, L<lhash(3)> + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +Copyright 2000-2016 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
