The message is "terminate."  If you the swarmActivity variable is visible
in the code where you want to stop, you could issue:

  [swarmActivity terminate];

Otherwise, the following statement is equivalent (getTopLevelActivity()
is a macro that returns the top-running swarm activity):

  [getTopLevelActivity() terminate];
