The Apache HttpComponents project is pleased to announce the release of HttpComponents HttpCore 4.1-beta2. This version fixes a number of non-critical bugs found since the previous release. The 4.1 code line is expected to supersede 4.0 as recommended for use in production with the next release.

HttpCore supports two I/O models: blocking I/O model based on the classic Java I/O and non-blocking, event driven I/O model based on Java NIO. The blocking I/O model may be more appropriate for data intensive, low latency scenarios, whereas the non-blocking model may be more appropriate for high latency scenarios where raw data throughput is less important than the ability to handle thousands of simultaneous HTTP connections in a resource efficient manner.
