  1. Enable throttling in the developer tools (e.g. "Slow 3G")
  2. Edit a task description
  3. Wait about one second
  4. Edit it again
  5. Observe that the task is saving again and again

UPD: probably related to #884 (or maybe even a duplicate?)

I can reproduce this, wondering how to solve this? I see a few options:

  • Disable auto save completely or make it configurable
  • Increase the idle-timeout so that it wont save so often and the chance is high the user already finished typing when the request starts
  • Prevent all input while saving (worst fix ux-wise, but would solve the overriding-in-a-loop problem)

What do you think?

We should reduce the frequency how often it's saved :)

Let us add a configuration flag to enable-disable auto-saving for now? That'll give us at temporary relief.
