Yes, running 3.3 should fix that.  You can safely delete most of those
snapshots if you want to save some space.  Also, you can edit
user_conf.py (in sage/server/notebook) to change the autosave_interval
to something bigger (this is #5371 that you referred to, although
there we are only thinking of upping it a little, you might want to
only save once an hour or longer).
