And it really annoys me too because usually, instead of an immediate "command not found", you've got a reply seconds later if on a not so fast computer. When working on Ubuntu, after a typo or missing command I have the time to realize that something strange is happening, to read again what I typed and to hit ^C before any message is displayed.
That annoys me too. The openSUSE guys worked on the same problem (https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435160), going from a few seconds down to 700ms and got told they'd need to do better :) In the end they added a COMMAND_NOT_FOUND_AUTO variable, disabled by default, to do the slow search, and the standard behaviour became to print a message similar to "Command not found. If this isn't a typo, run "cnf <command>" to find the package containing it" which is a solution I like.
