+This directory contains both sample applications and performance evaluation
+applications.
+
+SAMPLE APPLICATIONS
+
+Currently, there are two performance applications: libpkix_buildThreads and
+nss_threads. And three sample applications: dumpcert, dumpcrl and
+validateChain..
+
+============================================================================
+
+USAGE: dumpcert <certFile>
+ Parses a certificate located at <certFile> and displays it.
+
+Source: <root>/tests/sample_apps/dumpcert.c
+Binary: <root>/bin/sample_apps/dumpcert
+
+============================================================================
+
+USAGE: dumpcrl <crlFile>
+ Parses a CRL located at <crlFile> and displays it.
+
+Source: <root>/tests/sample_apps/dumpcrl.c
+Binary: <root>/bin/sample_apps/dumpcrl
+
+============================================================================
+
+USAGE: validateChain <trustedCert> <cert_1> <cert_2> ... <cert_n>
+ Validates a chain of n certificates using the given trust anchor.
+
+Source: <root>/tests/sample_apps/validateChain.c
+Binary: <root>/bin/sample_apps/validateChain
+
+============================================================================
+
+PERFORMANCE EVALUATION APPLICATIONS
+
+============================================================================
+
+USAGE: libpkix_buildthreads <duration> <threads> <eecertNickname>
+
+ Sets up and runs a PKIX_BuildChain call for the number of seconds
+ specified by <duration> using the number of threads specified by
+ <threads>. This application assumes that the NSS certutil application
+ has already been run to create the NSS databases and that the
+ various nicknames on the command line have been associated with
+ certificates in the NSS databases. The NSS databases MUST reside
+ in the directory where this file is located and MUST be named
+ "cert8.db", "key3.db", and "secmod.db". There must exist a nickname
+ in the databases which has been marked as trusted.

+============================================================================
+
+USAGE: nssThreads <duration> <threads> <eecertNickname>
+
+ Sets up and runs a CERT_VerifyCertificate call for the number of
+ seconds specified by <duration> using the number of threads specified
+ by <threads>. This application assumes that the NSS certutil
+ application has already been run to create the NSS databases and that
+ the various nicknames on the command line have been associated with
+ certificates in the NSS databases. The NSS databases MUST reside
+ in the directory where this file is located and MUST be named
+ "cert8.db", "key3.db", and "secmod.db". There must exist a nickname in
+ the databases which has been marked as trusted.
