    @tdas as per javadoc: 
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Runtime.html#addShutdownHook(java.lang.Thread)
    
    > Shutdown hooks should also finish their work quickly. When a program 
invokes exit the expectation is that the virtual machine will promptly shut 
down and exit. When the virtual machine is terminated due to user logoff or 
system shutdown the underlying operating system may only allow a fixed amount 
of time in which to shut down and exit. It is therefore inadvisable to attempt 
any user interaction or to perform a long-running computation in a shutdown 
hook.
    
    I think maybe we should not support stopping gracefully in the shutdown 
hook.
