However, I'm actually wondering whether you really always need to run
this background polling. If requests are always answered within the
timeout interval (which is set to 100 seconds), that mechanism should
be never needed. For instance, in the "AjaxSuggest" example, it will
be surely not needed. You will only need it if you have long-running
queries or computations where getting the result is crucial. So I was
wondering whether AjaxPage should provide a parameter that allows
disabling and enabling the polling mechanism. In the AjaxSuggest
example, I would like to disable it from the beginning.
I agree with you that webware is not designed for doing this kind of stuff.
If you want to do long running queries, I suggest that you bypass apache
and webware, and implement a separate dedicated (python) server that
supports these very long running queries, without the timeout problem,
without polling.
