Hello Michael,
One Fluentd instance consists of two processes.
The first one (pid 19682) is a supervisor process which monitors the child process (pid 19685) using a pipe.
The supervisor restarts the child process if heartbeats from the pipe stopped.
Fluentd runs with many kinds of plugins and some of them could be unstable. The supervisor reduces risk of
unexpected crash.
