Ummm, killing a process with SIGKILL (kill -9) terminates it ipso facto
without giving it any chance of flushing, storing unsaved data, or
cleaning up. It should only be used when a process refuses to terminate
by other means.
PyTables registers a cleanup handler (it flushes and closes open files)
that runs on program exit. Python is only able to run the handler on
normal program termination or on exception termination. Interrupting a
process with SIGINT (Control-C) is also seen as an exception, so you
could try to kill your process using ``kill -INT`` or ``kill -2``. This
may be helpful in your particular case. Bye!
