+====================
+MD5 validator plugin
+====================
+
+Entity bodies can sometimes be modified over the wire due to a faulty TCP transport or misbehaving proxy. If an HTTP
+response contains a Content-MD5 header, then a MD5 hash of the entity body of a response can be compared against the
+Content-MD5 header of the response to determine if the response was delivered intact. The
+``Guzzle\Plugin\Md5\Md5ValidatorPlugin`` will throw an ``UnexpectedValueException`` if the calculated MD5 hash does
+not match the Content-MD5 header value:
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ use Guzzle\Http\Client;
+ use Guzzle\Plugin\Md5\Md5ValidatorPlugin;
+
+ $client = new Client('http://www.test.com/');
+
+ $md5Plugin = new Md5ValidatorPlugin();
+
+ // Add the md5 plugin to the client object
+ $client->addSubscriber($md5Plugin);
+
+ $request = $client->get('http://www.yahoo.com/');
+ $request->send();
+
+Calculating the MD5 hash of a large entity body or an entity body that was transferred using a Content-Encoding is an
+expensive operation. When working in high performance applications, you might consider skipping the MD5 hash
+validation for entity bodies bigger than a certain size or Content-Encoded entity bodies
+(see ``Guzzle\Plugin\Md5\Md5ValidatorPlugin`` for more information).
