Instead a counter in the scoreboard for each child is used to + show when the child has made forward progress. The parent samples this + counter every scoreboard maintenance cycle, and issues SIGALRM if no + progress has been made in the timeout period. This reduces the static + request best-case syscall count to 22 from 29. This scheme is only + used by systems with memory-based scoreboards.
