Save large JSON to text straight from REST API response stream in Java

What is the best way to save a large JSON from a REST API call to a text file? I currently use Postman in Chrome to test the API and sometimes it makes Chrome un-responsive due large JSON output. I would like to write some Java codes to save the large JSON to a text file. Is there a way to stream the REST output straight to text input stream so that it wouldn't take too much memory at run time?

Suggest that you use cURL.

An example usage is found here : Capture Curl Output to a File

It should be more efficient than buffering the entire output.
