It sounds like the server in question is vastly overwhelmed (probably not enough RAM and it is swapping itself to death). At the very least, use 'kill' by itself (which is equivalent to 'kill -15' or 'kill TERM'), which gives the program enough time to clean up (and finish any writes). You could even try 'kill HUP' first ('kill -1'), for an even more gentle exit.
