If you want to be 100% sure something gets done, then don't do it. :-) Set up a "task" to be done later, and put that in the DB, and then have a cron job to run through the "tasks" and do them, and mark them "done" or not. The fact you are asking indicates that you've got something that takes too long for a user to wait around anyway, and that's another reason to just insert a "task" and act on it later. Don't make a human wait for a slow computer, ever. -- Some people have a "gift" link here. Know what I want?
