Very useful when making daemons, for example:

<?php
    $pid
= pcntl_fork(); // fork
   
if ($pid < 0)
        exit;
    else if (
$pid) // parent
       
exit;
    else {
// child
   
       
$sid = posix_setsid();
       
        if (
$sid < 0)
            exit;
           
        for(
$i = 0; $i <= 60; $i++) { // do something for 5 minutes
           
sleep(5);
        }
    }
?>
