How to pause the output in top

I distinctly remember there being a key one can press while running top that pauses the output, and then you can press the same key again to resume updates. However I can’t seem to remember the key. I’ve also read through the entire man page and done a good bit of searching on the web and on stack exchange.

Hoping someone knows what key to press to pause updates in top.

Side note: I suppose there’s a small chance I was accomplishing this via tmux and it’s not built into top, but I’m fairly certain it was in top.
