- It is best not to use SIGKILL to shut down
- the server. Doing so will prevent the server from releasing
- shared memory and semaphores, which might then have to be done
- manually before a new server can be started. Furthermore,
- SIGKILL kills the postgres
- process without letting it relay the signal to its subprocesses,
- so it will be necessary to kill the individual subprocesses by hand as
- well.
