Not sure if I agree with you in terms of sharing - why would we want to
share the etcd_client handle and not reallocate/take a new one?

We can create new ones, but suppose we want to change some parameters i.e passing certificates path when opening connection to etcd key/value store than we have to change it in two places :). Still, if you say I would do it with processes. It may be better. Don't know yet.

Now, using process instead of threads.
