[GNC] Scary moment

[Simon Roberts]

New user (refugee from Intuit, finally) question on this topic:

Given that these days we tend to have vast disks, and they're often very
fast SSDs, I'm inclined to enable auto-save and set a relatively short
interval (perhaps as little as a minute?)

Are there issues with doing this that I've not thought of? If my file gets
to several years worth, will it get large enough that this actually takes a
non-trivial amount of time? Will it be unmanageable for other reasons?

Thanks for your wisdom,
Simon
