Re-entry Permit and continuous residence

Hello All,

I am planning to leave the US for a period of 2 years after completing permanent residency of 3 years, for personal reasons.

To keep the continuous residency requirement for citizenship, I am planning to return in less than 180 days every time. In case I am not able to come back, I am also planning to get a reentry permit for 2 years.

The questions I have is, does an application for a re-entry permit (form I-131) stop the clock for citizenship, even if I do come back every 180 days?

Thanks in advance for your opinion and/or suggestion?
