Isn't it that zsyh does a fork for each token it analyzes?

# NOTE: This runs 'setopt', but that should be safe since it'll only ever be
# called inside a $(...) subshell, so the effects will be local.
_zsh_highlight_main__type() {
  if (( $#options_to_set )); then
    setopt $options_to_set;
  fi
  LC_ALL=C builtin type -w -- $1 2>/dev/null
}

...
      local res="$(_zsh_highlight_main__type ${expanded_arg})"
...
      case $res in
