    PHP normally terminates script execution once it realizes that the connection is closed:

    PHP will not detect that the user has aborted the connection until an
    attempt is made to send information to the client. Simply using an
    echo statement does not guarantee that information is sent, see
    flush().

    You can keep your script running using ignore_user_abort().

    Also, there is a default time limit for which scripts are allowed to run. You may want to override that using set_time_limit().
