Yes, that's almost certainly too fast to hit it with ^Z.

I had at least one case where
while true; do
/bin/true
done
was not suspended. I suspect, /bin/true simpy exits "too fast" for zsh to

No. Only if they have at least on external command or are in a pipeline.

What is the current status? Is zsh able to suspend loops containing only
builtins?
