Re: migrate bash process

Hi Enrico

If I understand the migration mechanism correctly, I believe that you 
have to fork separate processes in order for the load to be balanced 
out.  Simply creating a loop does not work, as the variables inside the 
loop will change as the loop iterates.  Migrating each loop iteration 
will not migrate because the program has no idea what variables will be 
changed in the loop, so it doesn't know how to process each one on a 
different node.
