 Choose your hash function wisely.  Some have known collision weaknesses.
 sha384 and sha512 will be slow on 32 bit platforms.
 
+Our implementation of hashlib uses OpenSSL.
+
+OpenSSL has a "FIPS mode", which, if enabled, may restrict the available hashes
+to only those that are compliant with FIPS regulations.  For example, it may
+deny the use of MD5, on the grounds that this is not secure for uses such as
+authentication, system integrity checking, or digital signatures.   
+
+If you need to use such a hash for non-security purposes (such as indexing into
+a data structure for speed), you can override the keyword argument
+"usedforsecurity" from True to False to signify that your code is not relying
+on the hash for security purposes, and this will allow the hash to be usable
+even in FIPS mode.  This is not a standard feature of Python 2.7's hashlib, and
+is included here to better support FIPS mode.
