django_eventstream block django other activities

[sdralarry]

I noticed that while working with django_eventstream send_event it prevents other activities from continuing even the loading of a new page.

How can i get the django_eventstream to respond to other activities while performing a specific operation and also allow django serer itself to perform other operations

Are you still experiencing this issue? send_event returns quickly, so I'm not sure how it would block other activities such as page loads.
