i don't know about any function that does that, what i did with something
simmilar is to
automaticly generate a frames page that calls the script which then only
performs 10 or so
of the tasks. you can easyly have that page open 10 or so browserwindows.
if you generate a framesmatrix 10*10 open 10 pages at least the time it
takes will
be devided by 1000 ( in avg.....)
( and of cause you will need something threadsafe/stable to safe the
results.....)
