 * sending results back.
 *
 * The file loaded will be lazily initialized the first time any of the workers
 * is called. This is done for optimal performance: if the farm is initialized,
 * but no call is made to it, child Node processes will be consuming the least
 * possible amount of memory.
 *
 * If an invalid message is detected, the child will exit (by throwing) with a
