Hi! Attached find a documentation patch for the encrypted passwords in userlists.
It adds a warning about the potentially significant CPU cost the modern algorithms with their thousands of hashing rounds can incur. In our case it made the difference between haproxy’s CPU usage being hardly noticeable at all to it almost eating a full core, even for a not very busy site. Tested with 1.6, but this applies to all versions, if I am not mistaken.
