No.

Shutdown can be made much faster then it is right now.  Most processes 
take a normal SIGINT (killall, pkill) and it will clean up.  But, 
currently, we reload all the scripts, all the configuration, delete pid 
files, etc. and wait for each and every daemon to say OK before we go 
to the next.  And, the funny thing is we just SIGINT and SIGKILL at the 
end: rc0.d/S00killall, rc6.d/S00killall.
