Yes.
Don't all processes release their core memory when they terminate ?

It depends how you kill it.
If you use a catchable signal, such as SIGINT or SIGHUP, it will close all
connections cleanly.

If you use something like SIGKILL, connections will be ripped out, so
DUA/DSAs connected won't see a nice shutdown.
