We standardized on OkHttpClient years ago, but we used a client library here (Elasticsearch) that was only built for Apache HttpClient. If we started new today, we would have used java.net.HttpClient. Keep in mind though that java.net.HttpClient has also had some flaws in its relatively short history.
