Hi Eric,
Thanks for the background. It looks like ob-screen may be very limited in
that it doesn't
It seems to me that a decent method would behave similarly to the way to
M-x compile works--- another buffer opens in which the compilation
progresses. Is there any reason why this might not be applicable to the
way babel works?

Hi Erik,
Currently there is not (to my knowledge) any support for asynchronous
code block evaluation. The one possible exception could be ob-screen
which I mention only because I don't really know anything about it.
This would certainly be a worthwhile feature to add to Org-mode code
blocks, however a good implementation (easy to use, robust and
cross-language) will be non-trivial to implement.
Best,

Hi,
I'm just starting to use org-mode and babel to structure exploratory data
analysis which I do for my work.
One issue that I've run into is that many of the queries I have to issue
will take a very long time to complete.
Is there any method I could use to execute them in a background process?
Thanks,
Erik
