@ 9 tons, you evidently have a 4" cylinder (you'll actually have closer to 9 1/2), and you will split a lot of wood with a 4" and 1500psi. As for getting stuck, a lot of that depends on the area of the rod side of the piston. If your splitter has a large diameter rod, it will return faster, but you will not have as much force to pull it back if it's stuck.
I'm not sure of the flow rate of your pump, but at full throttle, it's probably in the range of 5 gpm. It will take you about 1.3 gallons to stroke the cylinder 2', so with return time, you are only going to do about 2 strokes a minute at best. For and old guy like me, that's probably plenty fast, but a young buck will think it's too slow.
