I am using rpyc to spawn a python process that uses joblib on a remote 
server. I am running:

#rpyc_classic -m forking

This is the only way I have been able to get the remote process to use 
multiple CPUs. However after running for a while, I only get 2 or 3 CPUs 
active whereas initially I was using 48 CPUs. Looking at the list processes 
on the server, I do see about 200 processes like the one below

 69976 67657  0 12:23 pts/1    00:00:00 /usr/bin/python 
/usr/bin/rpyc_classic.py -m forking


Despite that only 2 or 3 CPUs are active and  my job basically slows down. 
It is almost as if once the RPYC process is spawned it does not return. How 
do I get the forking processes to return on finish  Is this the best way to 
do use rpyc for remotely executing my job.  Note that when running the 
python program locally, it uses joblib likes it is supposed to and uses up 
as many CPU's as available. It is only when running through rpyc that it 
plateaus after about 200 rpyc_classic processes.

Thank you
