Is this in minutes or seconds (or some other unit of time.)
Is there a way to shut autosave off? I think it might be what's causing the background popup window in my browser...
My suggestion would be it's in seconds, it can be 'turned off' if required by adding AutoSaveFrequency 0 to your mt_config table.
As it defaults to 5 it may need experimentation depending on the size & type of content. I would suggest at least 20 seconds :-)
It would be nice to see if it's possible to update Arvind Satyanarayan's old MT Config plugin (at least I think thats what it was called.
Meanwhile Im off to read http://blog.movalog.com/a/athena-developers-perspective/
