Because Minimize isn't evaluating it at all (I think). It's lost in never-never land.

Timing[NMinimize[
    {(x + x^2)/(1 + y^2) +
      (y + y^2)/(1 + z^2) +
      (z + z^2)/(1 + x^2),
     x > 0 && y > 0 && z > 0},
    {x, y, z}]]
{0.046999999999997044*Second,
   {0., {x -> 0., y -> 0., z -> 0.}}}
