Is it the size of the file or the amount of time that it takes to generate it?. Try serving up a static copy of the report after it's finished. If you can serve up a static version, then it's probably not the size.
We've got some large reports (>5meg) that can take up to 15 minutes to generate. Instead of having the user sit at a blank screen while it's being run, we kick off the report and immeditately forward the context to a status JSP. The status page refereshes every 20 seconds, checking to see what reports are complete. Once complete, we provide a link to a servlet that streams the report to the user's browser.
