46            <p>HTTP is the way modern applications network. It’s how we exchange data & media.
47                Doing HTTP efficiently makes your stuff load faster and saves bandwidth.</p>
48
49            <p>OkHttp is an HTTP client that’s efficient by default:</p>
50            <ul>
51                <li>SPDY support allows all requests to the same host to share a socket.</li>
52                <li>Connection pooling reduces request latency (if SPDY isn’t available).</li>
53                <li>Transparent GZIP shrinks download sizes.</li>
54                <li>Response caching avoids the network completely for repeat requests.</li>
55            </ul>
56
57            <p>OkHttp perseveres when the network is troublesome: it will silently recover from
58                common connection problems. If your service has multiple IP addresses OkHttp will
59                attempt alternate addresses if the first connect fails. This is necessary for IPv4+IPv6
60                and for services hosted in redundant data centers. OkHttp also recovers from problematic
61                proxy servers and failed SSL handshakes.</p>
62
63            <p>You can try OkHttp without rewriting your network code. The core module implements
64                the familiar <code>java.net.HttpURLConnection</code> API. And the optional
65                okhttp-apache module implements the Apache <code>HttpClient</code> API.</p>
66
67            <p>OkHttp supports Android 2.2 and above. For Java, the minimum requirement is 1.5.</p>
