No. Use that information if needed.

WOLongResponse won't solve my problem, because the user will introduce the data, get the "OK" page, close the browser and go away. I don't want him to be waiting, because, unless the whole server goes down, I'm sure, at that point, that all the data is valid and can be saved with no problems.

Fair enough. Okay, are you saving the user's data in the database prior to processing it? That would be the sensible thing to do if you want to be sure it'll still be there if the app dies.

Then just add a state column to the data that can indicate whether it's completed, in progress, etc.

Then you can safely have a background thread that dequeues jobs to process and can safely abort them mid-stream if the app has to go down.

If using WOnder, see ERXApplication.gracefulTerminate.

I'd be looking at java.util.concurrent (e.g., PriorityBlockingQueue, Execurtors, ExecutorCompletionService) etc.
