Hi, For JS it is clear that JSON will be faster, but what is the better choose in Java for Android? I mean, is it JSON parsed faster than XML on Dalvik?
And for the authentication I used to use PHP sessions and cookies when developing web pagers. Will be this also the prefered way to do it with the Android HTTP client? The other way I am considering is to give the client a token from the server after authentication and pass it in every POST or GET request to the server. This has the disadvantage of having to take care of passing it in every request, but on the other hand avoiding cookies should made the code simpler and easier to debug.
