Andrew Schwartzmeyer commented on MESOS-6868:
---------------------------------------------
I've started the transition away from `os::killtree` for the `WindowsLauncher`
and default executor, but there are still many instances in use elsewhere in
the code base.
> Transition Windows away from `os::killtree`.

> Windows does not have as robust a notion of a process hierarchy as Unix, and
> thus functions like `os::killtree` will always have critical limitations and
> semantic mismatches between Unix and Windows.
> We should transition away from this function when we can, and replace it with
> something similar to how we kill a cgroup.
