getResult, a call to async to run a very long task is not returning, but rather is running the call as if it is a regular (synchronous) function call, and only returns a future when the call is done.
I've made the simple and intuitive discovery that a call of sleep(100.msecs) at the start of the body of the function asynchronously called obviates the problem.
