websockify always print "No child process" and generate zombie child processes.

Hi guys：
I have 3 problems:

1. First question is websockify process print many error messages: "No child process", that cause my disk full. Anyone know the reason?
   LOG:
   handler exception: [Errno 10] No child processes
   handler exception: [Errno 10] No child processes
   handler exception: [Errno 10] No child processes
   handler exception: [Errno 10] No child processes
   handler exception: [Errno 10] No child processes
   handler exception: [Errno 10] No child processes
   ......

2. And then I read the source code, in the file websockify.py, the method start_server call the "select" with parameter "timeout=1". I think this the reason of printing "No child process". If I set "timeout=None"(forever waiting a client connect), then the issue can be resolved?

3. Sometimes I found the zombie websockify child processes, anyone have the same problem?

Thanks in advance,
Melo
