HTTP / Sockets / NIO

Hello,

I'm writing a small web crawler - I've a prototype implementation using Threads and HttpURLConnection, but as the performance (the ability to fetch as much pages in parallel) is very important in my case, I've decided to reimplement it using NIO.

But is there some 'HTTP Socket' class available, or do I have to implement all the GET / POST handling myself? I don't want to reinvent the wheel, but so far I've found nothing suitable.

Tomas
