Hi Steve, before attempting to hack BitcoinJ to use NIO you might want to take a look at BitDroid (https://github.com/cdecker/BitDroid-Network), which is my attempt to build an easily extensible network client (no crypto stuff so far) on top of NIO and a simple publish-subscribe architecture. I build a crawler like yours with just a single class that subscribes to events published and closes and opens connections to crawl.
