Re: Creating BIG zip file without time-out

As all the sarcasm drips down this page... However, Peter H. Coffin
raises a good question; "is a user waiting on this process?"
If not.... can you run exec() or pcntl_fork()?

Look them up on php.net as they can allow you to run processes in the
background (and therefore PHP isn't waiting on the process to
finish... of course you'll need to track the process id to check when
it's finished so you can use the archive)
