> Terrible advice. Use NIO and do it properly. Creating 1 thread per connection is for unskilled programmers. Sometimes the simple solutions are the best. Developing a complex and clever solution may your feel more skilled. Using a dispacther pattern often doesn't provides a real advantage and or the advantage it provides isn't needed. I would agree with the suggestion that if you are going to use a dispatcher pattern with NIO, use a library like netty which does this for you. (In any case you don't write it youself)
