*Never, never, never* kill -9 and expect any application to properly and 
cleanly shut down. Never.

The -9 signal cannot be caught by the process to which it is directed. The 
process is ended in the middle for whatever it is doing.

Issue a normal kill, and then ES (via the JVM) will have a chance to finish 
up whatever it is working on, and then shut down cleanly.
