The slow down begins when the message "Shutting down system logger" appears. Termiation of the process takes a minute or more. Then each of the following processes, "Shutting down interface eth0", "Shutting down loopback interface", and "Stopping iptables" exhibit similar behavior.

I really want to know what is causing the problem. It's probably something the developers made to accomodate SELinux but haven't quite got working correctly. It would be nice if the developers could fix it before the official release.
