Using the API getprocs64() instead I was able to eliminate those double pids (and increase the performance by a factor of 4). Otherwise we would have to add an algorithm to filter out the doubles after creating the raw list.

`/* skip files that aren't numbers */`

The comment is probably outdated and from the time when we looked at /proc fs in the old version .
So maybe adjust the comment or remove it if it is obsolete now ?
