Sometimes I type 'sudo su - user' in linux and then realise I'm typing it from an application account rather than a user account. I want to ctrl+c to abort the password entry. When I do this, it always freezes for a couple of seconds before it aborts the process and returns me to the shell.
What causes this pause? Can it be bypassed?

Try asking at http://superuser.com/, this is not programming related
