Hi Sanjiva,

We experimented extensively with NIO and had to conclude that NIO
performance is inferior to that of classic IO for _blocking_ HTTP (that
is, where  HTTP content is meant to be consumed / produced using
InputStream / OutputStream interfaces). This said, we are still planning
to work on NIO based components for non-blocking (event driven) HTTP. If
you need more details we should take this discussion to
httpclient-dev@jakarta.apache.org list.
