What are your threadpool settings? What exactly is 'slows down' If it
stops responding you are obviously running out of threads. If it just
gets slower,
you should consider measuring the load on your machine and webapp.
Maybe you should consider scaling to multiple tomcats/machines.

There are a lot of ways, but first you should identify your problem.

The common way to handle this is to inform user that the task is going
to last a bit more. To achieve this,
the original request starts a background job which executes the heavy
task. The original request then
sends the user to a wait page, which explains that he/she has to wait
for the execution. The wait page reloads itself
all 1-2 seconds checking whether the background job has finished. If
this happens, the wait page sends the user to the result page, where
he can examine the result of the background task.
There are a lot of classes like Executor, Future etc. which can help
you in synchronization of background jobs. Java Concurrency in
Practice is a good particular start.

Leon
