This is how I would handle this.
a servlet (or JSP page) starts a new thread that creates the report.
the request immediately returns with some "please wait..." message and a
refresh meta tag to rerequest the page every 10 seconds.
the class that creates the request (the one with the thread) can be stored
in the session. Every next request checks whether the report thread is still
running and displays the same "please wait " message again.
If the report is ready, the report can be shown.
get it?
