It is good to know about this....especially /proc/sysrq-trigger.

FWIW, I'll would still go about ssh'ing in as the first resort and
trying to kill off  apps in a clean way first before following up with
an echo to sysrq-trigger.  In the past, CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE would/could
result in files in a "corrupt" state.
