Tin Tvrtković <tinches...@gmail.com> added the comment: @Guido Imagine something_else() takes a long time and a lot of server resources (like a heavy query). If the web server disconnected a tad later and avoided the race condition, the task would have gotten cancelled very soon after the start of something_else() and stopped running it. But since the race did happen, the query avoids cancellation (potentially ~forever).
