I have a script that takes a while to process, it has to take stuff from the DB and transfers data to other servers.

At the moment i have it do it immediately after the form is submitted and it takes the time it takes to transfer that data to say its been sent.

I was wondering is the anyway to make it so it does not do the process in front of the client?

I dont want a cron as it needs to be sent at the same time but just not loading with the client.
