The built in http client is the usual Apache HttpClient so it can handle 
the passing of a cookies for you. I would suggest you make the program 
actually work and produce correct results before worrying about speed. 
 
First worry about what you need. For example do you need validation against 
a schema? (JSON won't do that). Do you need the extra structure of XML? 
Which of the two (actually three since you might go for SAX parsing rather 
than DOM parsing) fits the skill sets already available to you? 
 
Isolate the code that processes the http response in its own module so that 
you can change it without affecting the rest of the code. Once the code is 
working and giving you correct results then worry about speed. 
 
Optimizing a non-running program rarely works.
