sorry, hopefully better formatting now:


delete_by_pid(Pid, State) ->
    case ets:lookup(State#state.pid2id, Pid) of
        [{_, ID, Ref}] ->
            erlang:demonitor(Ref),
            ets:delete(State#state.pid2id, Pid),
            ets:delete(State#state.id2pid, ID);
        _ ->
            ignore
    end.
