I was under the impression that the @AfterClass annotation can only be used
in test classes.
Even so, the idea is that a user program running in the IDE should not be
starting up the cluster several times [my primary concern is the addition
of the persist operator], and we certainly cannot ask the user to terminate
the cluster after execution, while in local mode.
