We certainly can. As far as I understand, they log shutdown events
(including errors and warnings): what they kill, what they stop,
what they umount, etc. The more partitions, services are running
(I guess), the more things they need to umount, kill, stop; hence,
the more messages. I kinda can imagine what they will answer ;)
The below (and a bunch of other) messages are getting ratelimited.
I'm not sure what will happen should any of those steps fail and
print warning-s. My guess would be that we probably can ratelimit
those warnings:
