In Java, the built in UrlConnection (or whatever the name of the class is, I don't remember. The thing you get when you do URL#getConnection) reuses TCP connections per default, on the precondition that you read the full response before sending the next request. As for pipelining, this is (supposedly) supported by Jetty, and so should work on the neo4j server (my experiments did not use Jetty to serve our API, but the principle for why it is faster still applies, and the same performance gains should be seen). So really, it's just a matter of using a HTTP client that supports pipelining, unfortunately, there are very few to choose from.
