In PHP you can use the pcntl extension to create parallel processes that run multiple PHP tasks simultaneously.

However, when available, the pcntl extension only runs under UNIX/Linux systems.

This class provides an alternative to run parallel processes in PHP without depending on the pcntl extension. It uses the PHP CLI program to start new parallel processes.
