SimpleFuture is class that simplifies coarse-grained concurrency using processes instead of threads. Each instance represents the future result of a block that is passed to it. The block is evaluated in a forked child process and its result is returned to the SimpleFuture object. This only works on Ruby implementations that provide Process.fork().
