Nope, that's not how worker.disconnect() works. It just tells the master to not send any more connections to that child, allowing it to gracefully exit. Now of course if the child has some other reason to stick around (a setInterval or an outbound connection somewhere) then it will do so, but you need to take care of that in any system which supports graceful restarts.
