in thread Keeping browser active while computing in Perl/CGI
Heated handlebars are very much a thing for temperate zone motorcycle couriers. They are always used in addition to gloves. It's a good analogy here though.
My first thought was to queue the job in the background and tell the user to check back in 20 minutes. Or use a placeholder page that reloads every minute and eventually gets replaced by the results. A batch type scheduling thing might be worth it if there are a number of users.
