Yes. By default, when you shutdown the application/webserver, all data
is marshalled to disk (the complete session state etc.), and next time,
it is load's from this file.

This file is probably corrupted.

Hm, Ctrl-C doesn't work on FreeBSD, too. Or it takes a lot of time until
the program finally shuts down. That's a problem of WEBrick.

Just delete the file "dump" if it exists. And run the program again.
