Module process 

Child processes: spawn one, wait for its exit and talk to it through async pipes. Child processes: a Command spawns one, and its Child waits for the exit without holding a thread and talks to it through async pipes.

A child’s exit is reported by a shard’s driver, which reaps the child (see exit); a wait never blocks a thread. A child whose Child goes before it exits is still reaped (on unix), by the shard that watches it, so it leaves no zombie behind while a runtime runs.
