Answer 1

I prefer Netty.

Twitter also chose Netty to build its new Search System and sped it up to 3x faster.

We chose Netty over some of its other competitors, like Mina and Jetty, because it has a cleaner API, better documentation and, more importantly, because several other projects at Twitter are using this framework.
