   > A tip is to kill casd, so pkill -9 buildbox-casd if everything is really 
stuck.
   
   Good idea, unfortunately that does not actually work! You can kill casd, 
buildstream just re-prints the "Pull terminating" messages and keeps hanging 
there forever just like before.
   
   > is it that a second ctl-c should trigger buildstream to ask buildbox-casd 
to stop more quickly or is it that buildbox-casd stopped listening to 
buildstream?
   
   Actually buildstream has the ability to kill casd if it takes too long, 
however it does not choose to use it very reliably.
   
   > The issue is that some actions that we ask of casd are not trivial, eg 
pulling a large artefact over a slow network or doing a fetch from a remote 
server that is throttling us.
   
   I don't think it is that difficult to figure out that the network is offline 
and you are not pulling anything anymore or to just drop a half finished 
download and quit.
