Github user itaifrenkel commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/305#issuecomment-61631559 @clockfly - Please clarify. When you say "the parent process fails" do you mean that the worker process is no longer running? If this is the case that process cannot call cleanup() since it is not running. We are using os specific hooks in the child process to receive signal when parent process dies. Another cross platform alternative is using file lock checks. Either way, are you sure this is related to this pull request ?
