Summary
I have code that performs intensive computation and iterates over a user selected number of simulation points, and have a progress bar. This can easily take any where from 5-30 minutes based on how many points the user selects. The user clicks a button to start the computation, but when s(he) returns back to the streamit tab, the progress bar simply “hangs”. Does streamlit expects the user to consistently interact with the interface and otherwise disconnects if there is no interaction after “x” minutes? If yes, how do we fix this for use cases that require long computation times?
This behavior happens in both desktop and streamlit cloud.
