Killing an individual proccess

[j-mcnally]

So while its great to restart the server, its useful to kill off a single proccess, ive modified the UI and the worker to check if a proccess in in a new redis set called terminate, and if it is and if that proccess belongs to its host KEWatcher would terminate it.

Then based on scaling rules would restart it.

Im a bit new to redis / resque so there are probably better ways to do it, but i thought id start a conversation

Hey,

Could you explain your use case for wanting to kill off a single process? Would the user trigger the kill for the particular process, or would some resource threshold be met and the kill be triggered?

In the code ive hacked together the use can kill a pid if its stuck etc. automated would be super nice basically to set a timeout
