Hey,

HttpClient is great. Funny enough HttpClient is faster than HttpCore.
I couldn't compare it to NIO, because the NIO examples didn't want to
work with me. It's like the connections only paused and didn't
continue, eventually just timeing out. I didn't research it further
since the throughputs on HttpClient was sufficient.

Eitherhow, let me get to the point.

I am using HttpClient to fetch some of my resources of backend
servers. So far it's been perfect for this, but I want to do some
optimizations. I have made two separate connection managers and then
have maps to select which I want to use, based on the resource I want
to fetch. I was hoping to combine this all into a single connection
manager that selects the resource based on the URL and previous
history (which it builds up over time).

These smart selections are complex, so I'm not going to describe them
here. They are irrelevant to my question anyhow.

My question is basically how I would approach this. I assume I have to
extend connection manager and supply it to the constructor of
DefaultHttpClient. But what now? What do I have to do to manage
persistent connections? How do I store/retrieve information on
connections? How do I return such connections? How does all this work?

If anyone could guide me, or point me in the right direction (docs,
examples, etc) it would all be greatly appreciated.
