Well, we need some support here. Rasmus? Andi? Zeev? How can we be sure
that this is going to be executed? That would improve the speed of some
DB work we do here. If we could just "background it"...
humm... Maybe it's the case of inventing a function called background().
That function should just run another function in a background PHP
process. It shouldn't be hard for PHP to do that, since you already can
register a shutdown function and ignore user abort.
Well, thanks for throwing some lights in our darkness here, anyway.
