When I stop it with Ctrl+C I still see processes running in background.

@karsten - this is a different problem. Assuming you are using bash you can trap an exit condition (including Ctrl+C) and have the current and all child processes killed using trap "kill 0" EXIT

@Phil is correct. Since these are background processes, killing the parent process just leaves any child processes running. My example does not trap any signals, which can be added if necessary as Phil has stated.
