i see post crisis supes profile says that he is resistant to time manipulation and time stop, but the feats which are given for this resistance blatantly contradict themselves, in fact prove otherwise.
1. time manipulation - https://imgur.com/CmyAapu
"fast enough almost to negate the effects of my temporal modulation field" this statement suggests that supes is fast enough to reduce the effect of the slowed down time, but that's not the entire context here.
"faster and faster...days and nights passing outside distortion field is decreasing! i'm catching up to real time"
as you can see, when superman was under the field which slowed down time and as a result, slowed down the perception of time for superman and his movements, he just moved faster and faster and faster until he caught up to real time or the normal perception of time.
this is like when you try to slow down your opponent's movements. so his hands and body moves 10 times slower than usual. this in itself proves that the opponent is affected by your time manipulation. now the opponent increases his speed 10 times over and he is back to normal, caught up to real time.
that's what happened in this feat. the feat proves supes was affected and was slowed down. he just increased his speed to neutralise the affect and that's not called innate resistance.

"i feel my blood go sluggish in my veins, my vision begin to dim...my cells start to shut down...if i don't act quickly..."
these statements alone prove that the effect of chrono suspension was incomplete. as indicated by these statements, the chrono suspension was affecting supes as his blood and cells were slowing and shutting down, but the affect was still happening as supes can feel it happening. which means that the effect was not instant.
now supes says "if i don't act quickly..." implying that if he didn't act quickly the effect will be completed. his cells will shut down, blood will stop flowing etc. clearly insinuating that supes had to act quickly before the effect took it's full toll to break out of it. so there is no confirmation of what would've happened if the effect was completed, if supes didn't "act quickly". and going by that statement it looks like supes was not confident in himself if he could break out of it if it was completed.
so neither was this an instantaneous time stop as it was taking some time to take its full effect. nor did supes break out of a full-fledged time stop, as he broke out of it before it was completed, and supes statement implies that he would've been frozen if he didn't act quickly.
