Well, since "which" refers to a single subprocess, it is unambiguous.
(But you're in principle right, omitting the comma might be considered a
bit sloppy, as the clause is non-restrictive from a ''grammatical'' point
of view. I'd say it ''is'' restrictive, or constraining, from a logical
point of view though, as the subprocess wouldn't have been killed in that
situation otherwise, i.e. if it had not taken too long.)
We could also change "''which'' took too long" to "''because'' it took too
long"... :)
