My god.. How is it possible to suggest using such a nuclear warhead to shoot sparrows? Why not just fork a Thread, and do it there? Or use some Threadpool?

Do not use even think about considering it to show a "request being processed" page!!!!! | | If not, then follow Nic's advice and write it in python! Really really strange how Python is able to do this w/o the full J2EE container using a MDB, then?? (Btw, that acronym reminds me of "MBD"..) | | Who'd have know it was that complex! hahaha!
