I actually need a fast shell.

So did Debian and Ubuntu, so they demoted bash.

Whatever smugness you are interpreting here is diametrically opposed to the facts of this situation, and repeat after me:

It’s too big and too slow.

What do you think 'this situation' is?

Repeat after me: The situation is that fork is using almost all the runtime.

The only solutions are fixing fork or forking less. Your suggestions are not related to the actual problem the user is having.
