gvim hanging

Hi,
My gvim 7.2.330 on Linux is using a lot of processor power - together with other processes it's 100 % on both cores, gvim stats in htop are between 60-90 %. The command that lead me to this was @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ and so on which worked fine several times. The last macro was @q and it was something like :<UP><CR>nzz. The last command was :./usr/bin/php -r 'fWrite(STDOUT, rawURLDecode(file_Get_Contents('\''php://stdin'\'')));'. I don't see any PHP processes running so it's gvim doing... something. The program is not reacting to ^C, ^Z or <ESC>. Is there anything else you could do to break the current operation? In the past I tried signals, but they just kill everything. vim --servername GVIM --remote-send whatever executes but with no effect. If all you can do in this situation is to quit vim, is there any way for root to access its memory to recover contents that didn't get into *.swp?
