            Bug ID: 122530
           Summary: FILESAVE: Auto save timing logic problem: can save too
                    frequently
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.3.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: luke.kendall at gmail.com

My document (novel with editorial comments) takes about 30 secs to save.

My auto-save interval is set to 30 mins. 

Despite that, I have noticed several times (and again just now) that auto-save
can trigger less than two minutes after manually saving the document.

The necessary preconditions seem to be:

1) Have multiple large documents open
2) Edit all of them
3) Wait for an auto save to trigger on one.

If I then save my main document, it can complete that Save but then get a fresh
auto-save only a minute or two later.

I think what is happening is that the check of the time since last save is
being made for all documents open; or if it is a per-document property, the
'decision to save' a document is being made in advance of executing the
auto-save somehow.  As if the decision to save is made when any document
currently open starts to auto-save, and the actual last saved time of each
document is disregarded for the auto save which has been decided is due.
