Hi,

You'd have to have an awfully long test cycle. PID's are not assigned 
randomly, this should and is taken care of by the OS. Although I don't 
know the specifics.

Don't know about monit, but that's what PID's are for, to identify 
processes uniquely.

Point being, I wouldn't worry about this.
