Push in the background while still allowing changes to be saved

[scout208]

I have some clients that are running on very slow internet connection, and it can take them a long time to push data. I would like to be able to have the PushAsync method run in the background so that users don't have to wait a long time for it to finish and can continue adding new data to the service. The problem I have found is that if I have PushAsync running on a different thread, then any calls to SaveChanges will hang. Is there any way to work around this?
