As I mentioned in the previous post, i'm using httpclient for a
webcrawler i'm writing. at the moment i'm doing something like this:


    while(toVisit.size() > 0){

                      client.execute(method);
                      String mime = getContentType(method); // which
does method.getResponseHeader("Content-Type").getValue();
                     
                      if(supportedMimes.contains(mime){
                          handle(method.getResponseBody());
                      } else {
                          continue;
                      }
    }

the problem is that i can see that the crawler hangs up a lot of time
processing urls that are going to be ignored. so i guess it's
downloading the whole stream before ignoring it. is there a way i can
download just the header, check the content type and only then download
the stream (at the time of getResponseBody())?


TIA
