I don't think you can.
If the process is going to be running for that length of time, would it
make sense to delegate the processing to some other object? Then the
page can return immediately, with some appropriate code that requests
the browser to refresh the page at an appropriate interval. During a
refresh, you could poll the request's status and return an appropriate
message.
