I would like to launch in background a perl program ( or function who create lot of PDF) from my Dancer APP. and view in web page the log of this program.

I've done a small test, ajax part works well, but if my process backgroup is too long with sleep , nothing works, web browser wait...

What is the best way to do that ?

Maybe something like Dancer::Plugin::GearmanXS to send the long-running job to a Gearman instance, and then have your browser either refresh the page until the job is done or, if you really feel space-age, have a websocket connection (see Dancer::Plugin::WebSocket) to the server to push the results to the client when it's ready?
