Setup:
Ruby on Rails, Posgresql, Backbone
Situation:
I got a media archive app. The user moves around the site and selects images/movies etc to be packaged in a zip-file for download. Since the zip can get rather large I decided to mail the download link once the compression is done. However, I still have to wait for the request to get done before being able to do anything else. The link below describes the same problem but he is using ASP.NET and I can't find this Session State anywhere in the Rails documentation or on Google. Is it even called Session State in Rails?
Ideas?
