Marshall,

Thanks for the reply.

I'm using 3.4.rc0, built from the source.  I find three copies of
user_conf.py:

./devel/sage-main/sage/server/notebook/user_conf.py
./devel/sage-main/build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.5/sage/server/notebook/
user_conf.py
./devel/sage-main/build/sage/server/notebook/user_conf.py

which all have a 3 minute interval specifies.  I edited all of them to
be 3600 seconds.

But I'm still getting saves about every 30 seconds after restarting
Sage.

Rob
