My experience is that if rsyslog does not stop "quickly", then it is
trying to do something like write to a queue file or terminate
connectivity with a "slow" network partner. If you can figure out what
it's trying to do you'll be halfway to solving the issue.

The systemd service file is simple, this one from a server with multiple
instances of rsyslog...

Hi all
What is the correct way to stop the rsyslog daemon without message loss?
I'm having trouble to stop it via systemd, it takes forever and then the
process is killed.
Cann you provide a sample systemd unit file? Or point me to a
thread/web/etc.
Thanks
Pedro
