Hi, WebSphere application server, from IBM, has a similar problem. Their solution is to continuously send output, with current progress. Their 'view' which does this is so configured, that the HTTP Response starts sending the response immediately, not waiting for the response to be complete.
I don't know if that's possible in Django, but I guess that it should be? The user at least will know then, that the server is busy and not just dead.
