As a valuable feature of my software product, I want to say that results are calculated on-the-fly, meaning the user does not have to wait and receive results by email: results are displayed after two seconds. Should I say オンザフライ as advised by my friend alc? The context would be something like "オンザフライ結果表示" in a bullet list |

You could say
For example, an article introducing Google's Instant Previews was titled "Google、検索結果をその場でプレビューできる「Instant Previews」発表". I think this is the most natural way to put it. The downside is you lose the conciseness coming from the use of all-kanji/katakana compound nouns. |

Doubt there is anything better than katakana for the exact term "on the fly", but if you mean to say "real-time"/"immediate", perhaps 即時に【そくじに】 would do? |

If you want to state that the calculations are done as needed in response to demand, 随時 (ずいじ) would be a possible option. (随時更新される結果表示, maybe?) The ALC page I linked gives "running", "continuous", "as-needed", and similar terms as candidate translations for 随時. But if the quickness of your calculations is the main focus, I think Dave's 即時 would be better. |
