You should investigate a proper queueing or job scheduling solution, such as RabbitMQ or Qpid or gearman. They are designed for this type of requirement. You will have to write your code to be more event driven, and make the web server just generate requests and view the results where they are stored. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
