2, This process that I would like to run (db query basically) takes
some time to run so id like to sort of 'fork' it if possible so that
it doesnt hold up the rest of my app from serving requests. I just use
it to sync up my local object cache and so i dont need to wait for its
completion
I have a similar thing I'm looking to do and recently learned how to
extend paster to add commands. This works really well - you command
can load up the model and use all of your model code as is, it's
divorced from request handling, and it runs in its own process.
