get server response without using setinterval for chat applicaton php jquery

问题

i made a chat application, here is the refresh code

   setInterval(function() {
      $('#DisplauDiv').load('show-chat.php?session=<?php echo $_GET['session'];?>');

   }, 1000);

And this keep loading in each second, that will slow down the perfomance of my Mysql. While i cheeked Facebook(firebug), they dont have anything like this to get response from server.

Please tell me the technique to do this.

Thanks in advance to all for reading and replaying this..
