Sure, that's the nature of http: If you fire up requests for

http://myserver/performLengthyOperation?count=1
http://myserver/performLengthyOperation?count=2
http://myserver/performLengthyOperation?count=3
http://myserver/performLengthyOperation?count=4
http://myserver/performLengthyOperation?count=5

every seconds, the appropriate action will be started (and usually
finished) 5 times, regardless of how long you wait for each result (e.g.
regardless of when OpenSTA or your browser times out)

The server will likely notice that you have gone away when it starts to
send back a response. If your lengthy Operation doesn't send anything
back to the client until it finishes, it might recognize the fact that
the client has gone away after having written something to the database.

Cheers,
Olaf
