Fine, you got ten seconds to clean everything up after I SIGTERM before I SIGKILL
I should maybe alias that... Something along kill , sleep , kill -9
Think of the children!
Good thinking! We'll SIGKILL the whole process group! No descendants, no orphans.
Don't need some zombie child coming back years from now on a revenge arc.
And most importantly, no witnesses
Although the next time the process starts, it may find some mangled parts lying around with no recollection of what happened.
