"kill -3" in java should produce a javacore file. The process may or
may not continue (I've seen both happen). It may also continue to run,
but quit responding.
kill options vary from app to app. Many apps do not have good signal
handling and will die if you send ANY signal to it. Java is supposed to
be pretty, but WAS 3.5,and the JDK it includes, are quite old.
