Why not create the hash before forking the children? Then they'd all have a 
copy of it. You might also want to open two pipes before forking, and use one 
to send data to the parent process, and the other to send data to the child 
process, but I'm not sure how feasible that is (are file descriptors also 
duplicated? I guess so)

Cheers,

Simon
