# UnixSocketForker is an experiment of inter-process communication using
# plain unix sockets to communicate between forked processes and the
# parent process. This can also be done via IO.pipe. In this experiment,
# the jobs are simply random arrays whose sums are calculated in the forked
# worker processes.
