If we didn't include eventProcessor.terminate() we could theoretically receive a cancellation request for the first time after the interrupts were cleared for the FragmentExecutor#run thread. The cancellation would then interrupt the Thread again, and our FragmentExecutor would finish and leave the thread it used in an interrupted state. This could cause problems for the next FragmentExecutor that uses the same thread.
