New submission from Pablo Galindo Salgado <pablog...@gmail.com>:

In some systems, posix_spawn has an optional flag (POSIX_SPAWN_USEVFORK) that 
is GNU specific and allows the user to force posix_spawn to spawn the child 
using vfork instead of fork. This is very beneficial as it gives great speedups 
compare with normal fork+execv.
