Spawn of a lot python processes

Some strange behaviour in processes. They are little, they are a lot. They’re coming outta the f*****g walls 😦

Environment data

• VS Code version: 1.29.1 (User setup)
• Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar): 2018.11.0
• OS and version: WIndows 7 sp1
• Python version (& distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda): python 3.6.6
• Type of virtual environment used (N/A | venv | virtualenv | conda | …): virtualenv
• Relevant/affected Python packages and their versions: //

Expected behaviour

When a save is done, some linting process are created. After the save and the linting they should be gone.

Actual behaviour

When a save is done, some linting process are created. After the save and the linting they stay at a pace of 2/4 per time.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install python extension
2. Install pylint, pep8, pylint_django
3. Open a project and save
