+/**
+ * PIdleScheduler is the protocol for cross-process idle scheduling.
+ * Only child processes participate in the scheduling and parent process
+ * can run its idle tasks whenever it needs to.
+ *
+ * The scheduler keeps track of the following things.
+ * - Activity of the main thread of each child process. A process is active
+ *   when it is running tasks. Because of performance cross-process
+ *   counters in shared memory are used for the activity tracking. There is
+ *   one counter counting the activity state of all the processes and one
+ *   counter for each process. This way if a child process crashes, the global
+ *   counter can be updated by decrementing the per process counter from it.
+ * - Child processes running prioritized operation. Top level page loads is an
+ *   example of a prioritized operation. When such is ongoing, idle tasks are
+ *   less likely to run.
+ * - Idle requests. When a child process locally has idle tasks to run, it
+ *   requests idle time from the scheduler. Initially requests go to a wait list
+ *   and the scheduler runs and if there are free logical cores for the child
+ *   processes, idle time is given to the child process, and the process goes to
+ *   the idle list. Once idle time has been consumed or there are no tasks to
+ *   process, child process informs the scheduler and the process is moved back
+ *   to the default queue.
