Let $F_n$ be the Uniform empirical distribution function. Write $\hat F_n$ for the (least) concave majorant of $F_n$, and let $\hat f_n$ denote the corresponding density. It is shown that $n \int^1_0 (\hat f_n(t) - 1)^2 dt$ is asymptotically standard normal when centered at $\log n$ and normalized by $(3 \log n)^{1/2}$. A similar result is obtained in the 2-sample case in which $\hat f_n$ is replaced by the slope of the convex minorant of $\bar F_m = F_m \circ H^{-1}_N$.
