Quick Reboot - is it possible?

Now, everyone knows that Oompaloompas are like bunnies in that they have an insatiable desire to multiply, and the same can be said with Michigan teams (with all due respect) which are currently multiplying and filling that hand-shaped democratic kingdom with their honorable number. - Eugenia Gabrielov [more]

Quick Reboot - is it possible?

As part of another thread, I had a thought - is there a way to very quickly restart the main robot process?

Right now, you can

Hard reset the robot (turn the main breaker off, then on). This often takes over a minute before everything is back.
Soft reset the robot (from the driver station, reboot the cRIO). 30-70 seconds until robot is fully operational.

But is there a way to just remotely kill the robot program and restart it? I would hope that would be much faster than either option above.
