Node does not stop

[ryoppippi]

I am using Copilot on Neovim on my M1 mac.
Recently, copilot process does not stop when I quit nvim( I can see the copilot process as "node" on the activity monitor).
I usually notice this problem when my computer get slow and I find that multiple node processes running continuously, each consuming 3-4gb of memory

I have the same problem.

To end the program, you should be using Ctrl + C. If you do that, it sends SIGINT, which allows the program to end gracefully, unbinding from any ports it is listening on.

Copilot is triggered from neovim by a plugin and should exit when neovim does since it is supposed to be considered a child process. There's nothing to 'Ctrl+C' here.

Running killall node on the otherhand, does work.
