Thanks Ronald, After much reading and looking through the dev mailing list it seems that "pipelining" is what I was looking for. Though saying that, it does not seem to be very well supported in general. MozillaZine seems to think that pipelining is not very well supported by some servers (I assumed pipelining is only a client side concern?) and the java JDK (up to 1.5, probably 6 too) does not support it either. Does the new HttpCore 4 support it? (httpcomponents-dev mentioned that it might do by now - post made about a year ago) or should I be looking at HttpAsync or something else?
And just by the by, I thought NIO can serve more connections than using blocking I/O? Or perhaps only when the server is fully loaded? Thanks again!
