As developers do we have access to these session variables?  If so why not
just update them manually every so often during page processing?  You could
also override the system timeout with a cfsetting tag for these specific
pages since you know they may run long.

The session's last accessed time is updated every time a page is hit,
and every time a session variable is read, written or removed. CF does
not attempt to keep the session active during page processing. If you do
have pages running longer than your session timeout, you'll either have
to increase the session timeout, or take a long hard look at those data
loading screens (?) and see if some of that can be pre-loaded and/or
cached.

Not that I have much JS experience, but here's a random thought - what
if you ran the JS in a hidden frame? The page could execute for as long
as it wanted to in the main (visible) frame, while your JS checker
script could continue to run in the hidden frame, and would still allow
a user to respond to session timeout warnings.
