Did you know that you have programmatic control over the session timeout. Simply call the setMaxInactiveInterval method on the HttpSession object with a value in seconds. So if you know that a given request will take 10 minutes you can say: session.setMaxInactiveInterval(600); at the beginning of the request.
Caveats: You will need to reset the inactive interval back to five minutes when the request has completed processing or this value will be used for the rest of that user's session. BTW, this method only alters the inactive interval *for this user*. Second caveat: Have you verified that the browser or server will not "timeout" during this long request cycle?
