      In the event a pipeline build will not die you can hard kill it - however hard killing it will leave the JVMs CPS thread still running on the master.

      e.g. with the script

      def spin() {
    while (true) {}
}

def map = [:]
map ["spin_it"] = { spin() } 
}
parallel map

      you will need to hard kill it to stop it (on windows at least) - but inspecting the JVM threads you can see the CPS thread is still running in a tight loop.
      A hard kill should probably (if it is safe without causing deadlocks elsewhere) brutally kill the thread as well. After a while you may run out of handles or other native resources due to the thread usage, meaning you need to restart Jenkins to get it working again.
